Listen "Copland "Appalachian Spring" (Re-Upload)"
Episode Synopsis
For this Thanksgiving week we're doing another re-upload from the archive! Today we'll look at Copland's Appalachian Spring, a ballet that has captured the imagination of listeners worldwide and seems to be the marker of the "American" sound in Western Classical Music. We'll look at some of the differences between the two versions of the piece, talk about why it sounds so American, and listen to some fascinating rehearsal footage with Copland himself! This is one of my favorite past episodes - please enjoy!
