American composer. Born in New York to Jewish Russian immigrant parents. In 1921, he moved to Paris to study under N. Boulanger and others, and also studied piano under the great Spanish performer R. Viñes (1875-1943). His Symphony for Organ and Orchestra (1924, revised as Symphony No. 1 in 1928) attracted attention in the American music world, and he had connections with Koussevitzky and others. His avant-garde style, with many dissonant sounds such as his Piano Concerto (1926), which incorporated jazz idiom, attracted attention. In the 1930s, he changed his style in order to connect with the general audience. He gained fame with his orchestral work "El Salon Mexico" (1933-1936), which premiered under the direction of his friend Chavez, and came to be regarded as a leading figure in American composition with his ballet music such as "Appalachian Spring" (1944), performed by the ballet company of his close friend M. Graham. Other notable works include the ballet music "Rodeo" (1942), commissioned by the Ballets Russes de Monte Carlo, "Clarinet Concerto" (1947-1948), and "Symphony No. 3" (1944-1946), both commissioned by Benny Goodman. → Ginastera → Related article Ballets Russes de Monte Carlo Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
米国の作曲家。ユダヤ系ロシア移民を両親にニューヨークに生まれる。1921年パリでN.ブーランジェらに師事し,またスペインの大演奏家R.ビニェス〔1875-1943〕にピアノを学ぶ。《オルガンと管弦楽のための交響曲》(1924年。1928年に《交響曲第1番》として改訂)で米国楽壇の注目を浴び,クーセビツキーなどと交流。ジャズの語法を取り入れた《ピアノ協奏曲》(1926年)などの不協和音の多い前衛的作風が話題をまく。1930年代に入り,一般聴衆との接点を求め作風を転換。友人チャベスの指揮で初演された管弦楽曲《エル・サロン・メヒコ》(1933年−1936年)で一躍名声を高め,親交の深かったM.グレアムのバレエ団によって上演された《アパラチアの春》(1944年)などのバレエ音楽で米国作曲界の第一人者と目されるに至った。代表作にはほかに,バレエ・リュッス・ド・モンテ・カルロの委嘱によるバレエ音楽《ロデオ》(1942年),ベニー・グッドマンの委嘱による《クラリネット協奏曲》(1947年−1948年),《交響曲第3番》(1944年−1946年)などがある。→ヒナステラ →関連項目バレエ・リュッス・ド・モンテ・カルロ 出典 株式会社平凡社百科事典マイペディアについて 情報 |
