    1. Amy Beach: American Romantic

    At Festival Mozaic, Scott Yoo and his wife, the flutist Alice Dade, get to know America’s greatest Romantic composer, Amy Beach, and European women composers of her time. Across the country, they explore Beach’s New England roots and career, in a time when polite society looked down on women composers. Despite this resistance, Beach was one of the first to try to invent a truly American music.

    2. Florence Price and the American Migration

    Scott Yoo follows the trail of Florence Price, who fled discrimination in the South for a new life in Chicago. Here, with pianist Michelle Cann, he explores Price’s music and African American influences, and learns from leading spiritual, gospel, blues and jazz musicians how plantation spirituals--a mixture of West African music and European hymns--shaped nearly all of American popular music.

    3. Aaron Copland: Dean of American Music

    Each year, Scott Yoo and his musician friends spend a month teaching students--just as Aaron Copland did over his career--carrying on the long musical tradition of masters teaching students, who become masters themselves. Together they’ll play the works of Copland, to discover how he drew from his Jewish roots, Modernism, and most importantly American folk music to invent the American sound.
