Description Arnold Schoenberg’s Pierrot lunaire is an atonal, half sung, half spoken setting of poetry about sex and madness. From the moment it raised its wilfully weird head in 1912 it shocked and provoked listeners, while thrilling and captivating several generations of composers. Whether you know it or not, you must hear this amazing work featuring internationally acclaimed Australian performer Jessica Aszodi.
