...Maryland and Pennsylvania, courts have abolished the presumption that all household goods, including jewelry, belong to the husband −part of an over all trend toward recognizing the nonmonetary contributions of the housewife to the family's wealth...

As the years go by, Berg's claim to belong in such illustrious company looks more and more secure. It rests on two complex, powerful works, Wozzeck and Lulu, that in effect brought opera into the 20th century. Lulu, in particular, packed traditional operatic emotion and drama into the most advanced of forms, the twelve-tone system devised by Berg's teacher, Arnold Schoenberg...
