520 $a During the twentieth century, composers Aaron Copland and Leonard Bernstein wrote and lectured extensively about various aspects of contemporary music, the works of other contemporary composers, and their own compositions, thereby emphasizing the significance of contemporary music.
520 $a Consummate musicians, these men made a point of involving themselves with major trends in twentieth-century music in a manner completely original and innovative. Prolific as composers, authors, conductors and performers, Copland and Bernstein were able to communicate from a unique vantage point. They attained prominent social status and were key figures in the codification of a characteristic "American" sound. Therefore, to fully understand the development and significance of twentieth-century music, a complete and thorough understanding of Copland and Bernstein's contributions is imperative.
520 $a This study will investigate what both of these composers thought about music and, most importantly, how their writings and principles influenced music during the twentieth century.
520 $a Frequently, Copland and Bernstein discussed other composers, both past and contemporary. This study, first, will show the importance of their predecessors---composers of previous eras who were integral in establishing a twentieth-century approach to music. Next, an exploration of the twentieth-century masters of composition, including the trends they set forth and how Copland and Bernstein interacted with them, will be undertaken. The development of an American sound is a popular topic in writings on twentieth-century music, and will be thoroughly examined here, using eyewitness accounts of Copland and Bernstein, who were on the forefront of this development. Their specific contributions to twentieth-century music will be discussed from the standpoint of their influences on other composers and trends throughout the period. In the dissertation, it will be made clear not only that both composers were proponents for new music, but that both credited other composers, conductors, and teachers with being such advocates as well. Finally, an interdisciplinary connection will be established among the disciplines of music, poetry, language, and film to round out this comprehensive study of Copland and Bernstein's combined influence during the twentieth century.
