COPLAND, A.: Appalachian Spring / Hear Ye! Hear Ye! (Detroit Symphony, Slatkin) Aaron Copland wrote his rarely heard ballet Hear Ye! Hear Ye! For Ruth Page, the dancer and choreographer who was to become the Grande Dame of American ballet. It's scenario is a murder in a nightclub and the ensuing trial in a Chicago courtroom. Copland infused the score with the spirit of his jazz-influenced pieces, controversially distorting part of the National Anthem, and infiltrating music from some of his earlier works. In complete contrast, Appalachian Spring is his most famous work, a true American masterpiece founded on transfigured dance tunes and song melodies. This is volume two of the Complete Ballet series. Volume One is on UPC 63694397582
