Brief notes: Copland did win the Pulitzer for Appalachian Spring. Late-Romantic inventions (industrial/technical advances) affected 20th-century economic/social life. 20th-century composers changed melodic construction among other elements. Polytonality is indeed using two (or more) tonal centers simultaneously.
