 Berg finished Wozzeck in 1922 and advertised it with his own money. He was not immediately invited to publish it, but the uniqueness of his work gradually improved his reputation as a composer. Wozzeck's premiere in Berlin on December 14, 1925, was such a big success that it established and solidified Berg's status as a composer to watch.[([[https://www.metopera.org/discover/education/educator-guides/wozzeck/the-operas-plot-creation/|Metopera]])]

+===== Later Years =====
+Berg's final years were difficult for him as he struggled with poverty and the Nazi administration made it difficult for him to play publicly. The style of music he made at the time was not well received by the government, making it even more difficult to make a living.[([[https://www.eno.org/composers/alban-berg/|eno]])]
+===== Death =====
+He died at the age of 50 of blood poisoning from a carbuncle caused by an insect bite.[([[https://www.eno.org/composers/alban-berg/|eno]])]
