Excerpt from Serial Techniques in the Recent Music of Igor Stravinsky After the finede-siecle dost-romantic dilemma, music split into two broad streams--the out-and-out chromaticism of the Viennese school which continued the post-romantic tradition, and the pandiatonic/polyharmonic school that broke with it.
