Aaron Copland - Concerto for Clarinet, Strings, Harp and Piano (1947-49) [Score-Video] 

Virtuoso piece. You can't help realize how much of a genius Copeland is.

In the fast 2nd movement, I find some striking similarities to Stravinsky's Ebony Concerto, also for solo clarinet. Both works employ a jazz-flavored idiom with polychords and syncopated rhythms, and both works are scored for a smaller orchestra (no strings in the Ebony Concerto and strings and harp only in the Copland).

Used extensively in Ken Burns documentary The War about WWII and how the war impacted four cities across the country. Haunting.

Beautiful! What a great rendition by Martin Frost! Thanks for uploading

Nice having the score to see, but I'm not crazy about his performance, though I can recognize he's an elite clarinetist.

I like how I would cry at the beginning And after a while it's something completely different🥹

Whyyyyy is it in concert pitches????

There's a lot of "El Salón México" in this.
