About this listen

 Reporter Dave Davies and Aaron Copeland biographer Howard Pollack on this edition of Fresh Air. Dave Davies talks about Philadelphia and next week's Republican National Convention. He'll talk about what the city did to get the convention, what image the city is trying to project, and what the city is doing to prepare for the delegates, the protestors, and the media. Davies will also talk about the current controversy surrounding the Philadelphia police. Davies is a long time reporter in the Philadelphia area. He covers City Hall and city politics for the Philadelphia Daily News. Biographer Howard Pollack is the author of Aaron Copland: The Life and Work of an Uncommon Man. This year marks the 100th anniversary of Copland's birth. Though Copland was Jewish, gay, and raised in Brooklyn, his work came to personify the American West, with such well known compositions as Billy the Kid and Rodeo. Copland also wrote Appalachian Spring, and Fanfare for the Common Man. Copland also wrote the film scores for The Red Pony, and The Heiress. Pollack is professor of music history and literature at the University of Houston.(P) and ©2000 WHYY-FM Biographies & Memoirs
