The Boston School (Stravinsky School) is a group of (primarily) Jewish composers from Boston influenced by Igor Stravinsky's neoclassicism.[1]

Many of them studied with Nadia Boulanger.[2] Fine described the music of Stravinsky and his followers as "diatonic and tonal or quasi-modal", pandiatonic, and concerned with chord spacing and rhythm.[2]
