Appalachian Spring

Two Pieces for string quartet


St. Luke’s Chamber Ensemble, Dennis Russell Davies

This recording features not only what is probably Aaron Copland's most famous work, the ballet Appalachian Spring, but also comparatively unknown compositions from both the beginning and the end of his career.

“Crisp and classy performances of Appalachian Spring in its original chamber version, the earlier but already characteristic string quartet pieces and a later, wonderfully strong Nonet for strings.” BBC Music Magazine, Proms 2008 ****

Fanfare for the Common Man


English Symphony Orchestra, William Boughton

"William Boughton approaches both ballets clearly and objectively, which is Copland's own tradition. The discovery of the whole record - which at 75 minutes is very good measure - ought to be the Nonet. We must be grateful for the chance of getting to know this piece in a modern recording." Peter Dickinson, Gramophone
