    Despite his outsider status as a Jewish homosexual, Aaron Copland composed a significant number of musical works that embody the idea of American history, struggle, and courage.  
    http://www.glbtq.com/arts/copland_a.html
    
    Extractions: 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 outsider status that might be said to manifest itself in the celebration of the underdog, "the common man," that characterizes his music.

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, 12 Poems of Emily Dickinson

    Extractions: Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help (b. Nov. 14, 1900, Brooklyn, N.Y., U.S.d. Dec. 2, 1990, North Tarrytown, N.Y.), American composer who achieved a distinctive musical characterization of American themes in an expressive modern style. Copland, the son of Russian-Jewish immigrants, was born in New York City and attended public schools there. An older sister taught him to play the piano, and by the time he was 15 he had decided to become a composer. As a first step Copland tried to learn harmony through a correspondence course. Haltingly and in an environment not particularly conducive to art, he struggled toward his goal. In the summer of 1921 Copland attended the newly founded school for Americans at Fontainebleau, where he came under the influence of Nadia Boulanger , a brilliant teacher who shaped the outlook of an entire generation of American musicians. He decided to stay on in Paris, where he became Boulanger's first American student in composition. After three years in Paris, Copland returned to New York City with an important commission: Nadia Boulanger had asked him to write an organ concerto for her American appearances. Copland composed the piece while working as the pianist of a hotel trio at a summer resort in Pennsylvania. That season the Symphony for Organ and Orchestra had its premiere in Carnegie Hall with the New York Symphony under the direction of the composer and conductor Walter Damrosch.

    Extractions: September/October 2010 Virgil Thomson Roy Harris , and Walter Piston Igor Stravinsky once remarked, "Why call Copland a great American composer? He's a great composer." Copland's music, after his juvenalia, falls into three large periods. In the first two, he concerns himself with, among other things, trying to find a serious style which sounds American, rather than European. His main teacher, Nadia Boulanger, encouraged him in this, usually pointing out (to her) odd rhythms in his work. Copland had not noticed them before, because they were part of him. As Leonard Bernstein noted, they were the rhythms of someone who had grown up with jazz and American pop, although not necessarily jazz rhythms. As a young man in his 20s, he composes a ballet

    Biography of Aaron Copland from THE GROVE CONCISE DICTIONARY OF MUSIC.  
    http://www.pbs.org/wnet/gperf/education/copland.html
    
    Extractions: He studied with Goldmark in New York and with Boulanger in Paris (1921-4), then returned to New York and took a leading part in composers organizations, taught at the New School for Social Research (1927-37) and composed. At first his Stravinskian inheritance from Boulanger was combined with aspects of jazz ("Music for the Theatre," 1925) or with a grand rhetoric ("Symphonic Ode," 1929), but then he established an advanced personal style in the Piano Variations (1930) and orchestral "Statements" (1935). Growing social concerns spurred him towards a popular style in the cowboy ballets "Billy the Kid" (1940) and "Rodeo" (1942), but even here his harmony and orchestral spacing are distinctive. Another ballet, "Appalachian Spring" (1944), brought a synthesis of the folksy and the musically developed, the score being a continuous movement towards a set of variations on a Shaker hymn. Selected Works Include: Operas Ballets Film scores The City (1939) Of Mice and Men (1939) Our Town (1940) NorthStar (1943) The Cummington Story (1945) The Red Pony (1948)
