T-Z Subjects: A-B C-E F-L M-Z Copland, Aaron (1900-1990) page: In the course of a long life that spanned nearly the entire twentieth century, Aaron Copland composed a significant number of frequently performed musical works that have become so ingrained in the American cultural consciousness that the mere hearing of them evokes for many the idea of American history, struggle, and courage. Copland was born November 14, 1900 to an impoverished Lithuanian Jewish immigrant family in Brooklyn, New York, and his early experiences were shaped by the urban "melting pot" of American culture. That he was also homosexual contributed to the outsiderhood that might be said to manifest itself in the celebration of the underdog, "the common man," that characterizes his music. Sponsor Message. Like many other prominent twentieth-century American composers, Aaron Copland was trained in France by Nadia Boulanger. His music, however, is best known for its rejection of European, neo-Romantic forms and the creation of a uniquely American, modernist style in orchestral and symphonic music. Upon his return from France in 1925, his

Resources Menu Categorical Index Library Gallery Aaron Copland American Composer Inspiration may be a form of super-consciousness, or sure it is the antithesis of self-consciousness. Aaron Copland Aaron Copland was born on November 14, 1900 in New York City. His musical works ranged from ballet and orchestral music to choral music and movie scores. For the better part of four decades Aaron Copland was considered the premier American composer. Copland learned to play piano from an older sister. By the time he was fifteen he had decided to become a composer. His first tentative steps included a correspondence course in writing harmony. In 1921 Copland traveled to Paris to attend the newly founded music school for Americans at Fontainebleau. He was the first American student of the brilliant teacher, Nadia Boulanger. After three years in Paris he returned to New York with his first major commission, writing an organ concerto for the American appearances of Madame Boulanger. His "Symphony for Organ and Orchestra" premiered in at Carnagie Hall in 1925. Copland's growth as a composer mirrored important trends of his time. After his return from Paris he worked with jazz rhythms in his "Piano Concerto" (1926). His "Piano Variations" (1930) was strongly influenced by Igor Stravinsky's Neoclassicism. In 1936 he changed his orientation toward a simpler style. He felt this made his music more meaningful to the large music-loving audience being created by radio and the movies. His most important works during this period were based on American folk lore including "Billy the Kid" (1938) and "Rodeo" (1942). Other works during this period were a series of movie scores including "Of Mice and Men" (1938) and "The Heiress" (1948). In his later years Copland's work reflected the serial techniques of the so-called 12-tone school of Arnold Schoenberg. Notable among these was "Connotations" (1962) commissioned for the opening of Lincoln Center.

Aaron Copland By Paul Musser paul@musica.co.uk Born 14 November, 1900 in Brooklyn, USA Died 2 December, 1990 in North Tarrytown, USA Known primarily for his populist wartime ballets, Aaron Copland composed music that was diverse, eclectic, and thoroughly broad in scope, which in turn aided in the development of serious music in the Americas. The son of Russian Jewish immigrants, Aaron Copland was an unlikely musical pioneer. He grew up on the streets of Brooklyn, which he described as, "an environment that had little or no connection with serious music." His older sister, Laurine, gave him his first piano lessons and introduced him to ragtime and opera. By the age of twelve, Copland's interest in music was such that he began composing short works. After graduating high school, he decided to skip college and study theory and composition with Rubin Goldmark. It was here that he produced some of his first serious compositions, such as the piano piece The Cat and the Mouse (1920).

Brooklyn, N.Y. Copland was a pupil of Rubin Goldmark and of Nadia Boulanger, who introduced his work to the United States when she conducted his Symphony for Organ and Orchestra in 1925. Although his earliest works show European influences, the American character of the greater part of his compositions is evident in his use of jazz and of American folk tunes, as in the short piece for chamber orchestra, John Henry (1940). Copland's many ballets include Billy the Kid Rodeo (1942), and Appalachian Spring (1944). He composed music for the films Of Mice and Men Our Town The Red Pony (1948), and The Heiress (1949). His major orchestral works are El Salon Mexico (1936) and the Third Symphony (1946). Copland wrote a song cycle
