Originally a sextet, it was rewritten for chamber orchestra in 1917 and choreographed in 1942 for the ballet The Pillar of Fire. Based on the symbolist poetry of Richard Dehmel, this work contains a simple Romantic tune abruptly shattered by harsh atonality about midway and towards the end of the piece. The title represents the story of a woman who is pregnant with another man's wife, though her lover forgives her and says the child will be transformed into theirs through love. FTP, identify this early work by Arnold Schoenberg.
