From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

RE: Definitely look into Schreker.... how about Claus Ogerman?

This is more what I had in mind - Claus Ogerman. Schreker sounds like Sibelius on acid, though it is indeed non-functional harmony. Just not my kind of musical language.

I've been looking for inspiration for my songwriting - trying to get away from the usual functional harmony you hear almost exclusively in popular music. Trying to wrench myself away from it, which is quite an effort. Don't want to use jazz harmony either - been there for too long as a gigging jazz musician. Bluesy chords and tritones isn't my goal. Something more open and floaty.
