This candid, colourful memoir begins with Copland's Brooklyn childhood, through his years in Paris, the creation of his early works, his years at Tanglewood, through to his death in 1990. Rich with remembrances from Leonard Bernstein, Virgil Thomson, and Nadia Boulanger, as well as a trove of letters, photographs, and scores from Copland's collection, this is an enduring record of an American maestro's explosively creative coming of age.
