Arnold Schönberg was born on Sep 13, 1874 in Austria-Hungary [now Austria]. Arnold Schönberg's big-screen debut came with Introduction to Arnold Schoenberg's Accompaniment to a Cinematic Scene directed by Jean-Marie Straub in 1973.

Arnold Schonberg was born in the Jewish ghetto of Vienna, in 1874. His parents were Ashkenazim, his mother, Pauline was from Prague, and his father, Samuel, was from Bratislava. His mother was a piano teacher, but he had little interest in early childhood. He took violin lessons when he was eight and began composing at the same time.
