  • Description

    This recording brings together four extraordinary mid-20th-century composers who helped shape America's musical destiny. Aaron Copland's The Tender Land is a moving tribute to the American rancher and farmer. It forms a profound celebration of those unsung heroes of that country's landscape, and is perhaps his greatest expression of the preciousness of life. Walter Piston is represented by his colorful and beguiling The Incredible Flutist, which depicts a traveling circus led by a magical musician who is able to heal the sorrows of those who hear his music. The two premiere recordings here are the original orchestral version of Paul Creston's thrilling Saxophone Concerto, and Ulysses Kay's Pieta - a beautiful elegy inspired by Michelangelo's masterpiece.
