Aaron Copland was the quintessential American composer who captured the optimistic spirit and rhythm of his homeland in music and used it in homage to our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln. We repeat what was one of our most warmly received programs of last season. Music played: “Fanfare for the Common Man,” “John Henry” and “The Lincoln Portrait,” all written by Aaron Copland.

Connections: American historical and cultural heritage and evaluation of musical elements.
