What to Listen for in Music, Copland
Whether they listen to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart or Duke Ellington, Aaron Copland invites readers to ask two basic questions — Are they hearing everything that is going on? Are they really being sensitive to it? With his provocative suggestions, Copland guides readers through a deeper appreciation of the most rewarding of art forms.
American composer Aaron Copland’s well-known and highly regarded compositions have been performed and recorded extensively throughout the world, including the Pulitzer Prize-winning ballet Appalachian Spring, Billy the Kid, Rodeo, Lincoln Portrait and film scores of Our Town and The Heiress.
