5.0 out of 5 stars A direct line from mind to music Jan 9 2010
By Rich Needham - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
There is no opportunity to hear Beethoven or Mozart conducting their own works, so one must hear modern interpretations of the music, and no-one can say which performance most closely matches what was imagined by the composer. We are fortunate, however, to have surviving recordings of Stravinsky and Copland conducting their own works, and we can listen to those works purely and directly from the mind of the composer through the orchestra under his control. Of course, we often fall in love with the first performance we hear of a favorite piece, so perhaps Copland's interpretation isn't how you remember it. But it is the standard by which all other performances should be judged. These are wonderful recordings of groundbreaking music, and you would be remiss to pass up this opportunity to hear exactly what Copland meant.

4.0 out of 5 stars A spectacular performance Aug 10 2008

For once Sony did a spectacular job at remastering this historical performance. The opening percussions of Fanfare for the Common Man are just explosive but the whole disc is full of colors and a tribute to Copland's masterpieces.
Don't be afraid to listen to this disc at concert levels, that's how it is best enjoyed and the best way to discover one of the most impressive American contemporary composers.
I am less enamored with Warfield's performance of the Old American songs but in all fairness they've never been my cup of tea to start with.
5.0 out of 5 stars inspiring! Jun 14 2013

This cd definitely met my expectations. The American composers are as deserving as the European composers and we often overlook cds such as this one when building a cd library. Aaron Copland is amazing!
