Franz Schreker was an important representative of the Wiener Moderne and one of the most successful opera composers at the beginning of the 20th century. To conclude his studies at the Vienna Conservatory he set Psalm 116 for women's choir and orchestra (1900) and dedicated to his beloved teacher Robert Fuchs, in reverence. Fuchs, the highly respected composition teacher, was a close friend of Johannes Brahms and a champion of Brahms's romantic classicism. Thus, Schreker's psalm setting closely follows the tonal language of Brahms. In 1901 Psalm 116 was first performed in a concert of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Vienna, and was first published in the same year by the Viennese publisher Adolf Robitschek. The scoring of the psalm is identical with that of Brahms's Deutsches Requiem, which would suggest and facilitate a performance of both these on the same concert program.

Konig Tejas Begrabnis (1899) shows how Schreker was influenced by his work with the Doblinger Mannergesangverein, of which he was a member. In this work he set a text by Felix Dahn from Dahn's historical novel, Ein Kampf um Rom (1876), which dealt with the collapse of the eastern Goths in the sixth century. The four-verse chorus, Gebt Raum, ihr Volker, unserm Schritt, is a verse taken from the last chapter of the novel. It describes how the last surviving Goths bring their fallen King Teja back to the mythical homeland of Thule. It is true, that the majestic work for four men's voice is accompanied by a large orchestra, however the orchestral means are used sparingly, whether to support the choir, to provide a background (with string tremoli and timpani), or to play fanfares with horns and trombones.

Ignac e Strasfogel (1909 - 1994), a master student of Franz Schreker and Leonid Kreutzer, the youngest student at the Berlin Hochschule and the youngest recipient of the prestigious Mendelssohn Prize of the Weimar Republic, made a career as a conductor at the Metropolitan Opera after his emigration in 1934. His String Quartet No. 1, probably written in 1927 as the final work of his studies with Schreker, is an early work of the highest perfection. In the first of the two movements, grotesque-capricious scenariosare revitalized by contrapuntal artistry. The second, non less polypohnic, is a widely branched scherzo with an elegiac trio section. Just as striking is the harmony: With individually shaping of all four parts, all facets up to polytonality and complete detachment from functional tonality are explored - in a certain affinity with the musical language of Alban Berg, not without tongue-in-cheek references to the neoclassicism of the 1920s. A just as original as important contribution to the quartet repertoireof the early twentieth century.

Besides Ernst Krenek and the Czech composer, Alois Haba, Felix Petyrek (1892-1951) was one the most important pupils who studied under Franz Schreker in the latter's early composition classes in Vienna. In his Missa phrygica, written in 1949 for four to eight voices (it can be performed by a choir with soloists/small choir), Petyrek employs elements of vocal polyphony from the Renaissance and early Baroque in a very personal, modern contrapuntal fashion. However, the brightness of the splendid sonority in both the Gloria and Credo, obtained essentially through the use of chains of parallel fifths, shows the influence of his teacher, Franz Schreker.
