Teasing the Korean Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 (edited) At Bob Belden's suggestion, I picked up Otto Friedrich's City of Nets, a massive tome about the golden age of Hollywood. It is packed full of good information, but the author's dry writing style doesn't exactly make it a page-turner. There is a chapter about European, mostly Jewish, composers who fled Europe during Nazi Oppression and came to Hollywood, Schoenberg among them. I did not know until I read the New Yorker piece that Leonard Rosenman studied with Schoenberg, or that James Dean was Rosenman's piano student, or that Dean got Rosenman to score his films. Good information. Edited March 16 by Teasing the Korean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
