	Randall Thompson Centenary (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-30)
		Thompson was also a fluent symphonist, writing the kind of music that was felt to be particularly American in the 1930s and 40s - spacious and diatonic, close to Roy Harris or Rubbra, but without the individuality of Copland or the polish of Piston.
		Thompson's pupils at Harvard included Leonard Bernstein who paid him back in the best possible way by conducting his Symphony No.2 and recording it in 1968, a very different climate from the one in which it was composed.
		Thompson was born in New York into a New England family and went to a school in New Jersey where his father taught English.
