One of this man's last compositions was a string trio entitle A Survivor from Warsaw, and he depicted the soul's progression towards God in the composition Die Jakobsleiter. Hints of his most famous creation can be found in the last movement of his String Quartet number 2, although the first composition to fully employ it was his Piano Suite, Opus 25, and his only symphonic poem for large ochestra was Peleas and Melisande. 1913 saw the first performance of his Gurrelieder, which had brought him to the attention of Richard Strauss, and other famous compositions by this man include a poem about a puppet vexed by the moon, Pierrot Lunaire. The teacher of Alban Berg and Anton Webern, and the creator of Spechstime and Moses and Aaron, for ten points, identify this expressionist composer best known for his innovation of the atonal 12-note scale.
