Editorial Reviews : When it comes to light, folk-flavored listening, the music of Aaron Copland is some of the best and most popular. When it comes to crowd-pleasing conducting, Erich Kunzel is one of the great successes. This album contains most of Copland's essential compositions, in all or part: 'Fanfare for the Common Man,' four movements from 'Rodeo,' 'Quiet City,' 'Billy the Kid,' and 'Appalachian Spring.' All are performed in fine form; it would be nice to have all of 'Rodeo,' but this is otherwise all the Copland that most folks will need, and in one package.
Buyer Reviews : This album is an inclusive anthology of Copland's most popular orchestral works. Solid, energetic performances by the Cincinnati Pops. The recording is well-balanced and vibrant. A wonderful CD!
