With around two hundred pieces and a total duration of four and a half hours, Georg Kröll's diary is one of the largest piano cycles in music history. And the work in progress that began in 1987 continues to grow. All of the pieces already composed and others that are still possible are based on the basic series of Arnold Schoenberg's Suite for Piano, Op. 25. Schoenberg's series is permuted 42 times. Each note in this permutation, 42 x 12 = 504 notes, becomes the basic and starting note in the sense of a code that generates the material of the piece in question.
