Anton Webern (3 December 1883 – 15 September 1945) was an Austrian composer and conductor. He was a member of the Second Viennese School. As a student and significant follower of Arnold Schoenberg, he became one of the best-known exponents of the twelve-tone technique; in addition, his innovations regarding schematic organization of pitch, rhythm and dynamics were formative in the musical technique later known as total serialism.

Anton Friedrich Wilhelm von Webern, meglio noto come Anton Webern (Vienna, 3 dicembre 1883 – Mittersill, 15 settembre 1945), è stato un compositore austriaco. Fu uno dei primi allievi e seguaci di Arnold Schönberg e appartenne alla cosiddetta seconda scuola di Vienna. Nel 1925 Webern adottò definitivamente la dodecafonia appena essa fu teorizzata dal suo maestro Arnold Schönberg: tecnica compositiva della quale - anche per gli sviluppi tecnici che ebbero le sue idee da parte della successiva generazione di compositori - si sarebbe rivelato esponente originalissimo. La sua embrionale organizzazione dei sistemi di altezze, ritmo e dinamica divenne infatti il modello originario di una delle principali tecniche compositive della seconda metà del XX secolo, del quale si parla in generale come di serialismo integrale.
