Arguments on the hierarchy of the cultivated tradition's values and those of the vernacular tradition emerge in mid-nineteenth century American society. Departures from long established potpourri programming practices whereby the cultivated and vernacular traditions coexist arise in the middle and late twentieth century. Still, wind band conductors adapt and sustain potpourri programming concepts into the twenty-first century, fostering compositions that meld varied traditions. Reasons for these reactions and responses are discussed.
