The three pairings discussed are as follows: Schoecks Er ists (1937) as compared to Hugo Wolfs setting, 1888; Ergebung (1918) as compared to Alban Bergs setting Es wandelt, was wir schauen, 1908 (both settings were set to the same text); Rastlose Liebe (1909-1914) as compared to Franz Schuberts setting, D. 138 (1815). Each comparison discusses how the respective composers treated text, dynamics, melody, harmony, and various other musical elements. The comparisons will show Schoeck to possess a compositional style that featured a mixture of Romantic and early 20th century traits. Salient points in Schoecks life and their effects on his compositional style and career are also discussed.
