Hi everyone,
I have been utterly obsessed and laid flat, but Copland (I hadn't really paid much attention to him beforehand). Turns out I can't get enough of that sound.
I don't know how to describe it except for "American" (I know, I know!)
Are there other composers that I can find, who are writing in the same style, harmonic language etc etc?
I found a couple of guys (Joseph Curiale, Peter Boyer) and again, absolutely cannot get enough of this stuff. Any pointers or tips (or even how to describe it) would be amazing.
Bonus points for anyone who can tell me about the musical aspect of what they're doing (orchestrations, conventions, forms etc)
Thanks!!!
