Aaron Copland
“The Gift to be Simple”
Aaron Copland has been called the pioneer of American music. ...
American composer Aaron Copland was born November 14, 1900 in the city of Brooklyn. ... After three years in Paris, Copland returned to New York with his first major order, writing an organ concerto for the American appearances of Nadia Boulanger. ... In addition, upon his return from Paris, Copland worked with Jazz Rhythms in his work “Piano Concerto” and his work “Piano Variations” was heavily influenced by Igor Stravinsky’s “Neoclassicism.” In the year 1936, Copland left this style for a much simpler one because he felt that it made his music more meaningful and appealing to music-loving audiences.
