Arnold Schönberg 150 Years

On loan from the Arnold Schönberg Center in Vienna, this exhibition celebrates the life, art and music of Arnold Schoenberg (1936-44), the UCLA music building’s namesake. The exhibition is amplified with materials from the UCLA Walter H. Rubsamen Music Library, UCLA Library Performing Arts Special Collections and the UCLA Ethnomusicology Archive.

The physical exhibition spaces in Schoenberg Music Building are managed by the UCLA Music Library and the UCLA Ethnomusicology Archive.
