about

Hauer (1883-1959) invented a twelve-tone music almost totally opposed to Schoenberg's classical motivic approach. Nothing could be further from Schoenberg than Hauer's dictum: not too fast, not too slow, not too loud, not too soft; well tempered, well intoned.
- PZ, from Summergarden series/
Cage Notes 1988

In conversation, Schoenberg said he and Hauer had “both discovered the same diamond,” with Hauer adding, “but we view it from different angles.” From 1940 onwards, Hauer composed only Zwölftonspiele, arguably more meditation than music, in which he employed chance elements. He is thought to be the model for Joculator Basiliensis in Hermann Hesse’s The Glass Bead Game, and late in life, Hauer gave away most of his possessions except for his copy of the I Ching.
