An interesting statement, even though of limited relevance to the original
claim if true (which was whether Berg was .taught. serialism or 12-tone
composition as a student, which if Steve Schwartz was right, he was not.)
Have you any evidence for either part of your claim? (Interesting to see
Zemlinsky included among this group, by the way.)
