“All in all, there were roughly five Coplands, some of them overlapping. He was a Stravinskian modernist of the 1920s, a folk-inspired populist from the 1930s through the ’50s, an even more modernistic 1960s serialist, a Hollywood film composer who won an Oscar for 1949’s The Heiress, and, in the most encompassing characteristic of all, a musical dramatist. In all guises, Copland is, more than ever, a fixture in the American musical landscape.” – Philadelphia Inquirer
