I found this the other day, on Aaron Copland’s birthday, but I thought I would save it for the weekend, when you might have time to actually listen to it. It’s a fascinating document of four insanely talented composers – Copland, Leonard Bernstein, Lukas Foss, and Irving Fine – gathered around a piano and engaged in a bull session about the state of American music.
