Copland, Aaron - Piano Album

Piano Album - 11 Pieces

Aaron Coplands name is, for many, synonymous with American music. It was his pioneering achievement to break free from Europe and create a concert music that is recognizably, characteristically American. At the same time, he was able to stamp his music with a compositional personality so vivid as to transcend stylistic boundaries, making every work - from the easily-grasped to the demanding - identifiable as his alone.
