Aaron Copland was often referred to as "The Dean of American Music" and his compositional style has come to define what is considered the American sound. For the first time in one collection, and originally on Everest Records, Alto is pleased to release three works conducted performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and conducted by Aaron Copland himself.
