In addition to his success and achievements as a great American composer. Aaron Copland is also recognized as a distinguished and exceptionally gifted lecturer. author. pianist. and organizer of musical societies. I would like to take this opportunity to highlight the achievements of his career. Aaron Copland was born in Brooklyn. NY. on November 14. 1900. to Jewish immigrant parents. His interest in music began early and as a child he studied piano. In 1921. he went to Paris as the first student to enroll in the newly established Conservatoire Americain at Fontainebleau and studied composition and orchestration with Nadia Boulanger. a great organist and teacher at the time.
