In 1933, Austrian composer Arnold Schoenberg<\/a><\/strong> immigrated to the United States, settling in Los Angeles; he would spend the rest of his life writing music and teaching composition at USC and UCLA. Following him, in 1940, came Russian-born composer, pianist, and conductor Stravinsky<\/strong><\/a>, who settled in Hollywood after making the move from France. Then, in 1942, fellow Russian-born composer, pianist, and conductor Sergei Rachmaninoff<\/a><\/strong> arrived in Beverly Hills. These immigrants\u2014and others who followed them\u2014fused L.A.\u2019s free-spirited culture with the traditions they brought with them from their homelands.<\/p>\n
