After the Wake looks both backwards and forwards. It considers the musical legacy of two old men who had dominated the first part of the 20th century - Schoenberg and Strauss - and looks at the pot-war generation of young Europeans, such as Boulez and Stockhausen, who were determined to erase the recent past and build a completely new music for a new Europe.
