Composing in Cortlandt

Yesterday's New York Times had an interesting article on Copland House, the former home of the famed composer, Aaron Copland, in Cortlandt Manor. For the tenth year in a row, nine composers will take turns living in the house for 3 to 8 weeks, where they can focus on their work. The small house has recently been named a National Historic Landmark, and is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In addition to providing budding composers with a sanctuary, Copland House has a resident ensemble, Music From Copland House, which performs both locally and across the country.
