During the nineteenth century, American audiences primarily favored European classical music, considering it more sophisticated and prestigious. American composers faced challenges gaining recognition and support for their work. Additionally, there was a lack of infrastructure and institutions to promote and perform concert music by American composers.
Aaron Copland studied music at the Paris Conservatory in France, where he was influenced by notable composers and the European music scene. He also absorbed various musical styles, including jazz and folk music, which he later incorporated into his works. Additionally, Copland's exposure to American music traditions shaped his unique compositional voice.
