Vier Lieder, Op. 2, is a song cycle composed by Arnold Schoenberg in 1899 and 1900, during his early development. In contrast to his earlier songs, influenced by Richard Wagner and Johannes Brahms among others, these four songs use a fair amount of the dissonance and atonality that Schoenberg is known for.
