Aaron Copland Quizzes, Questions & Answers

Fanfares for the common man is how Aaron Copland's music best remembered. But he produced music in a variety of other forms, including opera, chamber music, and film scores. Copland took lessons in music and learned how to play the piano, but he did not excel at it like some of his four siblings did. He did realize that his passion was in composing and was determined to do whatever he could to become the best, even studying with Nadia Boulanger for three years (instead of one). At the age of 50, Copland would receive the Fulbright Scholarship and study in Rome, adjusting his style once again.

What were the two films Copland wrote the score for in 1939? Which of his lectures helped tell people what to listen for in music? How many medals did Copland receive from the U. S. government for his contribution to music, and popular culture? Call up the commando unit and send in Billy the Kid if you cannot figure out the answers to these quizzes.
