Debussy's music is often characterized by its impressionistic qualities, emphasizing atmosphere, color, and fluidity, with a focus on tonality and modal scales. In contrast, Schoenberg is known for pioneering atonality and the twelve-tone technique, which abandoned traditional harmonic structures in favor of a more abstract, serial approach to composition. While Debussy's works evoke imagery and emotion through lush harmonies, Schoenberg's music often challenges listeners with its complexity and dissonance. Ultimately, Debussy seeks to create a dreamlike experience, whereas Schoenberg aims to explore new musical languages and forms.
