【美国人物志】阿隆·科普兰(3/8)
阿隆·科普兰（AaronCopland，1900—），美国作曲家。祖籍俄国，是第一位被认为有本土风味的美国作曲家。30年代多次访问墨西哥，1936年根据墨西哥流行曲调创作管弦乐幻想曲《墨西哥沙龙》，十分成功。用这一风格写作的其他作品尚有芭蕾舞剧《小伙子比利》、《牧区竞技》和《阿帕拉契亚之春》。晚年少创作，转而从事指挥。Hints:

She was one of the most important music teachers of the time. He returned to New York in 1924. The famous conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Serge Koussevitzky, learned about Copland's music. Koussevitzky led the orchestra for the first performance of Copland's early work, "Music for the Theater," in 1925. Koussevitzky also conducted Copland's "Concerto for Piano and Orchestra" in 1927. This work was unusual because Copland used ideas from jazz music in his concerto.科普兰20岁出头时，他去往巴黎向娜迪亚·布朗热学习音乐。她是当时最为重要的音乐教师之一。1924年科普兰返回纽约。波士顿交响乐团的著名指挥家库塞维兹基了解到了科普兰的音乐。1925年库塞维兹基指挥该乐团首次演奏了科普兰的早期作品《戏剧音乐》。1927年，库塞维兹基同样指挥了科普兰的作品《钢琴和管弦乐队协奏曲》。这是很不同寻常的，因为科普兰总是在自己的协奏曲中加入爵士乐的成分。
