ANOTHER PUNK ROCK RIOT circa 1913

Another punk rock-style riot in 1913 about music besides that of Stravinsky's premier of Rite of Spring*... Caricature of Vienna, March 31, 1913 concert by Schöenberg that actually lapsed into altercations within the audience of pro and anti-modernism. Program of Alban Berg, Anton Webern, Zemlinsky and Mahler. Except they never even got to the Mahler selection, too much violence...

* Rite of Spring in Disney's Fantasia
