Whether they listen to 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, Aaron Copland guides readers
through a deeper appreciation of the most rewarding of art forms.
Now in trade paperback: ?The definitive guide to musical enjoyment?
("Forum").
In this fascinating analysis of how to listen to both contemporary
and classical music analytically, eminent American composer Aaron
Copland offers provocative suggestions that will bring readers a
deeper appreciation of the most viscerally rewarding of all art
forms.
Whose fault is it that the artist counts for so little in the
public mind? Has it always been thus? Is there something wrong,
perhaps, with the nature of the art work being created in America?
Is our system of education lacking in its attitude toward the art
product? Should our state and federal governments take a more
positive stand toward the cultural development of their citizens?
These are some of the provocative questions which Aaron Copland
raises and answers in Copland on Music.
