Aaron Copland was born in Brooklyn in 1900 at the dawn of a new
generation. In a community of immigrants, he had a front-row
seat to the many ways that the United States was growing and
changing. During this electrifying time, Copland began making
music as dynamic and innovative as the people and progress
around him. While some didn’t understand his style or
appreciate his desire to break the rules in his compositions,
he endeavored to create a sound that reflected the America he
knew and loved.
Vibrantly brought to life by the words and illustrations of
Veronica Mang, Copland: A Story About America is an ode
not only to the composer known as the Dean of American music
but also to a century of dramatic cultural and social change
that created a new world.Book, 40
pages.
