Austria's AEIOU has bar-by-bar analyses of major classical works (of composers associated with Austria): audio, annotations, scores, and performance/score animations in various video formats, together with biographical essays on the composers. Some possible points of departure: 1, 2, 3.
I went straight to the Schoenberg section. It's a pity that they don't look at more pieces but at least they have some Arnie up there... I'll look at other things later. Thanks Wolfdog!

Great find!
The History of Music page leads to some very interesting material stretching back to a prehistoric bone flute and leading up to modern music.

Oh, as you mentioned in your comment.
Here are the bone flute from the Gudenus Cave and the bone flute from Flavia Solva (200 AD). With audio and spectrograms! Yes!

It's like being back in a college music course.
Some fun stuff here.

Uh... not to play the predictable "how could they leave out this!?" card, but have these folks ever heard of a guy named Gustav Mahler? Those of us outside Austria might in fact consider him a little better known Austrian composer than, er, Karl Schiske.
Oh well. Other than that, it looks like a worthwhile site - but I was really hoping there would be something exhaustive on Mahler's Symphony No. 1 (his first and last truly great symphony).

Well, at least the one they chose is an interesting mature example, rather than another rehash of Pierrot or Verklarte.

Perhaps there's something coming; I imagine it's rather arduous to prepare these and even the smallest Mahler work would be a task.
his first and last truly great symphony
Well, that should warm up the conversation a bit.

Symphony No. 1? Enough blasphemy you cretin. Symphony No. 6 was his only truly great symphony. :)
