After learning from Schoenberg’s great books, I realized that the change was the constant topic mentioned throughout the book, which is an absolutely essential element of his aesthetics

A soldier once approached Schoenberg and asked "hey aren't you Schoenberg, the composer?". He replied "well, someone has to be!"

GG appears to have memorized not only all Schoenberg's piano music but all the music he ever wrote.

I love that this begins with the Second Chamber Symphony. Both Schoenberg's First and Second Chamber Symphonies are criminally neglected masterpieces of the 20th Century.

What makes this a nice exchange is that Burton's tastes are those of a cultivated but not mandarin-elitist music-lover, and he makes it necessary for a mandarin like GG to explain his taste for Schoenberg. So GG can't stay in his elitist bubble. Burton was a little older than GG, and is still with us.
