BARGAIN OF THE MONTH MusicWeb October 2005 "Copland is in the first rank of those whose skill has created an American music, quite distinct from that of their own roots. A great disc."

BARGAIN OF THE MONTH MusicWeb October 2005
"I am often struck by the extent to which the U.S., being a new country ("Old American Songs" are, after all only about 150 or so years old!) has benefited from the influx of refugees from Europe, especially in musical terms. One can cite so many composers for the concert hall, film and TV and for the stage, whose origins lie in these countries. Copland is in the first rank of those whose skill has created an American music, quite distinct from that of their own roots. A great disc."
