Who influenced Luigi Nono?
- Arnold Schoenberg — Nono's opus 1 is a set of canonic variations on a series by Schoenberg — whose daughter Nuria he later married; the lineage is both musical and familial.
- Anton Webern — Darmstadt's Webern cult was Nono's serial school — his early works extend Webern's pointillism to political texts.
