"After more then 30 years of absence, the Vienna State Opera dedicates a new staging to Schoenberg’s unfinished opera Moses und Aron with Franz Grundheber as Moses and Thomas Moser as Aron – a breathtaking and multimedia opera highlight accompanied by the chorus and orchestra of the Vienna State Opera conducted by Daniel Gatti.

Possibly Schoenberg’s finest work, and certainly one that he held close to his heart, is his unfinished opera Moses und Aron. Even more than his play Der biblische Weg, Moses und Aron represents Schoenberg’s finest attempt at meshing his philosophical ideas with his artistry. It is a work that can be approached on many different levels: as an example of his twelve-tone system, as a work of biblical commentary, or as an attempt to work out the problems facing the Jew in the modern world."
