A massive collection of sheet music spanning the whole career of 20th century composer Arnold Schoenberg was lost in the Pacific Palisades fire. The collection, maintained by a publishing company run by the composer's heirs, was used extensively by scholars and musicians to study and perform Schoenberg's works. The company has said it will digitize and rebuild its collection over the next several months.
