Ives (1874-1954), subtitled “Concord, Mass., 1840-60,” sprawls over four movements filled with gestures of tremendous complexity and density, and exhibits an unprecedented scope of ideas. The more spare Piano Sonata by Aaron Copland (1900-1990), on the other hand, articulates its three movements in half the time of the Ives, with characteristic economy and restraint throughout. Yet both works are products of composers considered typically American; the biographies of both men resonate with an almost mythical ring: Ives, the Yale-edu- cated businessman who, in his spare time, composed music many at first considered incomprehensible, and Copland, the son of Jewish immigrants, whose music melds the sounds of folk song and dance into what became accepted as a national American music.

  • Appalachian Spring Aaron Copland (1900–1990) Written: 1942-44 Movements: One Style: Contemporary American Duration: 23 Minutes
    Appalachian Spring Aaron Copland (1900–1990) Written: 1942-44 Movements: One Style: Contemporary American Duration: 23 minutes Much of Aaron Copland’s fame as a composer rests on his three brilliant scores for ballet: Rodeo, Billy the Kid, and Appalachian Spring. He didn’t start out writing in the style found in those three ballets. As a young man, he was allied with the modernist movement in America. However, in the 1930's he began to feel an increasing dissatisfaction with the relations of the music-loving public and the living composer . It seemed to me that we composers were in danger of working in a vacuum. Moreover, an entirely new public for music had grown up around the radio and phonograph. It made no sense to ignore them and to continue writing as if they did not exist. I felt that it was worth the effort to see if I couldn’t say what I had to say in the simplest possible terms. The success of El Salon Mexico (1936), Billy the Kid (1938), A Lincoln Portrait (1942) and Rodeo (1942) proved that Copland’s newfound populism was the right course. When Copland accepted a commission from the Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge Foundation to write a ballet for Martha Graham in 1942, the only restrictions that he knew of were that it had to be for a small enough orchestra to fit in the Coolidge Auditorium at the Library of Congress—only 13 players—and be about thirty minutes long. He knew that the general subject of the ballet had to do “with the pioneer American spirit, with youth and spring, with optimism and hope.” As Martha Graham worked on the choreography with the music, the ballet grew into a .

DO IT AGAIN: SEQUENCES IN GERSHWIN AND KERN’S POPULAR SONGS MAXWELL RAMAGE mericans George Gershwin (1898–1937) and Jerome Kern (1885–1945) both A succeeded as Broadway composers but began as “song pluggers” on New York’s Tin Pan Alley.1 Their popular-song output, however, was far from hackwork; indeed, their chromatically inflected, extended tertian harmonies enriched the expressive palette available to song composers at large.2 Gershwin and Kern seem to have influenced one another: Gershwin idolized the elder composer3 and stated that his early songs “paid [Kern] the tribute of frank imitation.”4 Conversely, Howard Pollack hears in Kern’s song “Whip-Poor-Will,” for example, suggestions of Gershwin’s “From Now On.”5 In view of the special regard in which Gershwin held Kern, I will compare and contrast their popular songs.
