1Anton Webern
Five Movements for String Quartet, Op. 5

grandaddy of serialism / hot rivalry with stravinsky (stravinsky only started adopting
serialist techniques after weberns death) / ~~EDIT: actually schoenberg was the father of serialism and was also the composer
who stravinsky rivaled and copied serialist techniques from / though stravinsky and webern also didnt get along but thats
because stravinsky didn't like other composers on principle
