Schönberg’s retirement from UCLA on 31 October 1944 was not the cessation of his activity as a teacher. “I had not begun to reach the age of retirement! Maybe some teachers have nothing to give after a certain age, but I am still full, full!” (Schönberg, interviewed in 1949)
As Visiting Professor at the University of Chicago, he delivered four lectures in May 1946. In the summer of 1948 he taught composition and lectured at the Music Academy of the West near Santa Barbara, California.
