Webern had no real influence on later composers.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
False
During his lifetime, Webern suffered from a lack of public recognition, but his music became increasingly influential after World War II. In particular, in the 1970s and 1980s, many young composers, such as Pierre Boulez and Milton Babbitt, captivated by the lean character of his style and his isolation of the single note as an important musical event, adapted features of his music and expanded the techniques of serialism to suit their own purposes.
