Part 2 first broadcast performance in this country
More than half Schoenberg's compositions are settings of words, from the early songs and Gurrelteder to his last three works, Op. 50. Dreimal lausend Jahre, completed in 1949, is a setting for mixed a cappella chorus of a poem by Dagobert David Runes , a contemporary American philosophical writer on mainly Jewish subjects. ' Thrice a thousand years passed since I saw you go, Temple of Jerusalem, Temple of my woe': the poem is a lament for the old City of God and the land of Jordan.
