After his move to the United States in 1934, he altered the spelling of his surname from Schönberg to Schoenberg.
Schönberg's approach, both in terms of harmony and development, has been one of the most influential of 20th-century musical thought. Many European and American composers from at least three generations have consciously extended his thinking, whereas others have passionately reacted against it. During the rise of the Nazi Party in Austria, Schönberg's works were labelled as degenerate music.
Schönberg was known early in his career for simultaneously extending the traditionally opposed German Romantic styles of Brahms and Wagner. Later, his name would come to personify innovations in atonality (although Schönberg himself detested that term) that would become the most polemical feature of 20th-century art music. In the 1920s, Schönberg developed the twelve-tone technique, an influential compositional method of manipulating an ordered series of all twelve notes in the chromatic scale. He also coined the term developing variation, and was the first modern composer to embrace ways of developing motifs without resorting to the dominance of a centralized melodic idea.
Schönberg was also a painter, an important music theorist, and an influential teacher of composition; his students included Alban Berg, Anton Webern, Hanns Eisler, Egon Wellesz, and later John Cage, Lou Harrison, Earl Kim, Leon Kirchner, and other prominent musicians.
Many of Schönberg's practices, including the formalization of compositional method, and his habit of openly inviting audiences to think analytically, are echoed in avant-garde musical thought throughout the 20th century. His often polemical views of music history and aesthetics were crucial to many significant 20th-century musicologists and critics, including Theodor W. Adorno, Charles Rosen and Carl Dahlhaus, as well as the pianists Artur Schnabel, Rudolf Serkin, Eduard Steuermann and Glenn Gould.

20c 초반 음악
쇤베르크 - [정화된 밤]
(현악 6중주) - 초기버전 (바2 비2 첼2)
★제 1기 [후기 낭만주의] (조성적 창작 시기)
쇤베르크는 - 19c마지막 해인 1899년에 작곡된 현악 6중주곡 [정화된 밤]은 후기 낭만주의 사조를 보여주었으나, 이후 낭만주의 음악 어법의 한계를 느끼고
점차 [무조성 = 표현주의]으로 향했다.

Interesting: An early enough piece by Schoenberg, that it has a Key Signature.
Burkhard Stackelberg
Actually, there are pieces "with a key signature" throughout his life; most of those rarities are occasional works.

@Burkhard Stackelberg Ya..........the rest are just a dodecaphonic mess.
Sunny Jim
@Burkhard Stackelberg Yeah, only because it saved him having to pen so many 'accidentals' in the long run, haha

@RSR, Train And Classical Music Fan I guess by your username that your appreciation of what is 'classical music' is extremely narrow then. A'ight.
