Alban Berg Listen to excerpts on our website Alban Berg's Three Orchestral Pieces op. 6, composed in 1914-15, are dedicated to "my teacher and friend Arnold Schoenberg, in immeasurable gratitude and love." The Seven Early Songs were composed earlier between about 1905 and 1908, when Berg was studying with Schoenberg. Written in a musical language that has strong echoes of Mahler and Wolf, they show Berg's individual style beginning to emerge.
