Don´t be ridiculous, please. Schoenberg, for
better or worse, built structures, systems,
developed concepts of organisation.  Whether or not
you like the music isn´t the point.
Every note had equal rights. A democratic,
egalitarion composer, if you like.

Wagner made a point of creating institutionalized
decadence, intentionally destroying morals, tastes,
traditions.
