First edition thus. Wonderful association copy of the revised and expanded edition of Copland's seminal work on 20th century music originally published in 1941. This copy coolly and briefly inscribed to his contemporary in the American scene, Virgil Thomson; "for VT from AC, 1968." This brevity points to the frosty and competitive relationship the two composers often shared, both having begun their careers in Paris studying under Boulanger. And, though Copland is generally thought of as the inventor of the American sound, he does not forget to acknowledge the influence of Thomson, specifically in his operatic compositions: "Virgil Thomson. seem[s] to have set us on our way toward having our own kind of operatic piece. [he] is about as original a personality as American can boast, in our out of the musical field." A magnificent book with a tangible link between two of the fathers of American music. 8vo, 194pp. Musical vignettes.

Copland was referred to by his peers and critics as "the Dean of American Composers". The open, slowly changing harmonies in much of his music are typical of what many people consider to be the sound of American music, evoking the vast American landscape and pioneer spirit. He is best known for the works he wrote in the 1930s and 1940s in a deliberately accessible style often referred to as "populist" and which the composer labeled his "vernacular" style. Works in this vein include the ballets Appalachian Spring, Billy the Kid and Rodeo, his Fanfare for the Common Man and Third Symphony. In addition to his ballets and orchestral works, he produced music in many other genres, including chamber music, vocal works, opera and film scores.
