And some would say that the music of Ligeti and Messiaen is ridiculous.
The point was, post-expressionism is meaningless as a term. Anything written in the past 50 years is post-expressionism. From the lyrical style of romantic era music to the collection of sound effects of the avant garde.
And BTW -- whether you like the piece or not, a lot of people consider Schmidt-Kowalski quite a good composer -- just as there are those who consider Messiaen a good composer.
