{"value"=>"<p>The correspondence series provides a wealth of information about Berger and his role in 20th century American music. Reflected in the letters are his professional and personal relationships with many influential composers, such as Aaron Copland and Igor Stravinsky. The largest exchange of correspondence is found in the <span class=\"title\">Perspectives of New Music</span> folders, which follows the creation of the periodical, and details the arguments between Berger and his co-editor, Benjamin Boretz, during the summer of 1963. The general correspondence section of the series demonstrates his wide reach as a composer and critic.</p>"}
