Im 55yr old english fella, a roofer/prison officer, two noble trades if done properly. A common man, i take Mr.Copelands song personally. Its for us all,
Eugene Goosens called on Copeland to write this song as a tribute to all the common men called on to perform uncommon tasks in WW2. Goosens was the conductor of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. Aaron Copeland wrote the soundtrack to America, his Rodeo is the musical equivalent of Fredrick Remington's paintings of the old west, having grown up in the Appalachian Mountains of Pennsylvania I can assure you the story of him spending a springtime in a cabin in the Pennsylvania mountians to get the inspiration to write Appalachian Spring is 100% true, right now as I speak it's springtime in our Pennsylvania mountians, as the songbirds return and the forest comes back to life you can just feel that song in the air.
I started playing this (both versions) in high school orchestra and marching band. I am 64 now and still playing. Blood stays pumping with Aaron Copeland /ELP music classic.
What to say abour this...nothing, It reflecta how we aré as human beings, such a tribute to mankind, I'm 58 grew up with solid rock, blusa, soul an so on, this son wraps up all...thx to ELP
I am a classically trained musician who had just started music school at the local university when Emerson Lake and Palmer came out with their album version of Copeland. Both versions bring back fond memories of a happy time in my life.
I always wondered how this should be listened to -- Leonard Bernstein conducting the NY Philharmonic with Copland in the audience or ELP's sound check in Canada in the bitter cold. Now I know. It should be played this way.
Just brilliant, loved how these classically trained musicians were really into the ELP piece. Still love the original version from ELP . Got emotional right through this, music can do this to you.
This is a masterpiece. Music has to encourage, entice, uplift the common person. This piece did that and more, it propelled the individual to become greater than themselves.
Nah fam, gang on dah shih mang, I be a schtraight thug n shih mang, glad you yt peepo passed yo civilization to us blacks. Now iz r turn to lead you yt's, we kangz and now uze gon bow down.
I love this rendition of the song by Copeland. It should be in the repertoire of every symphony orchestra. Emerson, Lake and Palmer did a great job--and it will live through the ages. Thank you !!
A GREAT PERFORMANCE OF THE ORIGINAL VERSION, BUT THE MODERN ONE IS MOST THAN AMAZING. BY THE EMOTION, IT ALMOST PROVOKE ME A BRAIN STROKE!. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL., FOR THIS INCREDIBLE GIFT!
The second half of this tribute to America has such a delightful surprising jazz ending. One of the best of Aaron Copland a close friend of Leonard Bernstein
While I tend to be a strict purist, the transition to the upbeat ELP arrangement was a pleasant suprise. The orchestra members looked like they were having a great time with it. Very nice
I agree. The Emerson part does not (to me) quite work in this orchestration, or performance. The voicings do not capture the angularity, muscularity and musical intelligence of the original. But I concede that anyone not intimately familiar with the source material would find a lot to enjoy. And the Copeland (opening) portion is excellent: faithfully rendered, as Kerenna points out, and in a very "musicianly" and sensitive way.
Wasn’t expecting the orchestral version of ELP’s prog rock 🪨 🎸🎸👩🎤🥸masterpiece at the end! This is cool 😎 and I’d bet all those musicians had the time of their lives bashing this one out on stage? 🎸👍🤜👏👏👏👏👏👏👏BRAVO!!!! BRAVO 🙌 BRAVO!!!!!👏👏👏
I absolutely adore this rendering of this piece! The trumpets at the beginning sound like one trumpet and t as they move into the harmony it is seamless and gorgeous!!
It's very strange that only one guy knows the "rock" (no jazz at all!) version of Fanfare by Emerson Lake and Palmer, great trio of musicians who reinterpretated classics (Bartok, Janacek, Bach, Mussorsgky, Stravinsky and Copland) in the '70s. Thanks God I had the chance to live those years and appreciate rock music!!! See how the player in the orchestra enjoy the rock part of Fanfare..... Great.Thanks to Keith Emerson!!!
@@patriciadyar2482 so did I in Detroit, and they returned a few months later, sans orchestra, it was too expensive a tour. Still, two of the greatest shows I've ever seen!!
Impressive tonal quality, timing and spacing by the brass in the opening Copland segment and really enjoyed the ELP treatment at the end. One of the best renditions on UA-cam! My compliments to this fine young orchestra.
Super. Aus der Traum..... Augen zu, und reinhöhren. Dann spüre Deinen eigenen Traum. Du musst aber bereit sein, es in Dich zu lassen. Wer spielt noch in der Richtung ? Ich bin stolz mit 59.
I said yes to the man I married 47 years ago with this music played live at our wedding.

Exactly. Any job (trade) done properly is noble.
im45 y.o. Prison officer too - I'm pensioner now,from Russia. 👍😀
I started playing this (both versions) in high school orchestra and marching band. I am 64 now and still playing. Blood stays pumping with Aaron Copeland /ELP music classic.
Age 78, listened to this countless times and I still get chills. LOVE Copeland's music which is 100% American.
Did not expect the orchestra to do the rock transistion. Pleasant surprise.
Love Mr.Copelands work, he lived in my home town of Peekskill ,New York. What a neighbor to have!!
ELP put their spin on a philharmonic piece; then a philharmonic put their spin on ELP's spin of a philharmonic piece. Great music!
Greatest concert I ever saw Emerson Lake and Palmer works with the orchestra ! Bar none!
As a musician, Fanfare is my absolute favorite song of all time. Original, ELP, this version, it doesn't matter. The song is so powerful.
The greatest testament to the music is seeing how much the musicians enjoy performing the piece,
I named my Beautiful Sloop
" Fanfare "
To pay honor to this amazing music.
Quite simply terrific arrangement. What’s not to love?
Played on the organ at Smoky Mary’s in NYC for my brother’s funeral, March 2011. I still can’t listen to this without crying.m
What to say abour this...nothing, It reflecta how we aré as human beings, such a tribute to mankind, I'm 58 grew up with solid rock, blusa, soul an so on, this son wraps up all...thx to ELP
Fabulous. Amazing. The musicians are clearly loving it. This goes in my 'favorites'.
Listening to this with nice quality headphones is amazing. My common man Blue Collar anthem.
The opening horn section with the harmonisation always sends tingles up my spine.
In my opinion, both versions are, and will always be FANTASTIC!
The orchestra did the ELP version of Fanfare For The Common Man by Aaron Copeland. Life has come FULL Circle!
The opening horns on this piece always gives me chills.
Yeah, I know what you mean.
Me as well! The impact is enormous ~ The resounding horns remind me of a Roman Colosseum.
Me too! Then they have fun and get “jazzy” at the end!
pareil pour moi !!!!
Yep! Just gorgeous! Beautifully done!
Absolutely priceless
What a tribute !
I have this as my ring tone.
Never fails to get a compliment.
Love it !
I am a classically trained musician who had just started music school at the local university when Emerson Lake and Palmer came out with their album version of Copeland. Both versions bring back fond memories of a happy time in my life.
Copeland and ELP were a good mix. Couldn't say the same for Metallica.. And if my fave band Megadeth tried it. Never
Well done...
I always wondered how this should be listened to -- Leonard Bernstein conducting the NY Philharmonic with Copland in the audience or ELP's sound check in Canada in the bitter cold. Now I know. It should be played this way.
Sehr gut! Grusse aus Minnesota, USA
He was asked to write a fanfare for the nations soldiers, but decided to do it for the workers, the common man behind the war effort.
My favorite piece of music ever.
Just brilliant, loved how these classically trained musicians were really into the ELP piece. Still love the original version from ELP . Got emotional right through this, music can do this to you.
Beautiful version of an Aaron Copland masterpiece.
I believe it to be one of the best pieces ever written and ELP the best to play it. Marvelous!
Pure musical beauty.....and it brings a tear to my eye
Yes, indeed it does. Copious tears. Involuntary.
Now, THAT's a piece of great music!
The co-ordination to bring all these people to work in harmony is incredible when you think about it !!
This is a masterpiece. Music has to encourage, entice, uplift the common person. This piece did that and more, it propelled the individual to become greater than themselves.
It's so peaceful and enlightening. Comfort to my heart. I am common.
Nah fam, gang on dah shih mang, I be a schtraight thug n shih mang, glad you yt peepo passed yo civilization to us blacks. Now iz r turn to lead you yt's, we kangz and now uze gon bow down.
Sou do Brasil. Mas somos privilegiados por gostar disso.
Em qualquer país!
Beautiful and magnificent rendition of one of my favorite songs.
Wow...Both Colpand and ELP would be proud. So well done.
FUCK YEAH, This is THE ultimate!
RECORDAR ES VOLVER A VIVIR QUE BELLEZA DE MUSICA YO ERA UNA ADOLECENTE CUANDO EMPECE A ESCUCHAR A ELP ESCUCHO Y ME EMOCIONO
So brilliant, bought me to tears...:)
I love this rendition of the song by Copeland. It should be in the repertoire of every symphony orchestra.
Emerson, Lake and Palmer did a great job--and it will live through the ages. Thank you !!
Great tribute to ELP and their version of it.
Yep! I just have loved it since 2013!!! So young, play BEAUTIFULLY!!!!
So GREAT. Never get an better Performance Sinne Emerson an Lake and Palmer. You are Great. Love you too.
I love how all those young kids now know who ELP were/are and appreciate them.
Keep the faith. There's hope yet for the world as we know it.
I love listening to this. I could listen to this forever practically. Some ofvthe other comments are awesome.
A GREAT PERFORMANCE OF THE ORIGINAL VERSION, BUT THE MODERN ONE IS MOST THAN AMAZING.
BY THE EMOTION, IT ALMOST PROVOKE ME A BRAIN STROKE!. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL., FOR THIS INCREDIBLE GIFT!
The famous ELP's arrangement for Copland's Fanfarre For The Common Man.
Works Volume 1 tour, loge fourth row center, Madison Square Garden, I will never forget it.
an anthem for the citizens of our wonderful planet earth and rightly so!
BRAVO, FANTASTIC, WONDERFUL. Congratulations to all of you. Here in the USA, I call that CLASS! Danke, Danke, Danke.
I was lucky enough to see them when they tour the "Works" album.Concert was amazing.
This is SO powerful!
Homage to ELP
It features ELP's work, they have to be acknowledged for their arrangement of the Copeland piece.
Played this several times in the mid 1970s in a 12 section of fanfare trumpets. I played the tenor/alto part which is high and surprisingly strenuous.
3.55 min in, and im tearing up. So much power.
I am too. So awesome!♥️♥️
Retired Public School Teacher, Washington State. I listen to it every night before going to bed. This is in music what we all dedicated our live for.
Excellent.
Very great! I love it! Many thanks!
No hay algo mejor para un atleta que un camino largo y un entrenamiento extenuante, en mi mente ese sonido motivándome a seguir, seguir, seguir...
Keith Emerson!
Keith was the best ! He was my favorite in all Of Music! Bar none! 😢 I miss you Keith rest in peace !
Still amazing .... 2019.
Perfect.....
Wonderful! Such a beautiful wall of music.
Fantastic! I had heard years ago a work like this was done and now I finally see it!
Excelent.
Love it and loved ELP, epic 70s musicians.
RIP Keith Emerson.
...and Greg Lake...:(
Palmer is still living.😁😁😁❤❤❤
The second half of this tribute to America has such a delightful surprising jazz ending. One of the best of Aaron Copland a close friend of Leonard Bernstein
Aaron Copland, America's best composer of the 20th Century. The last half is incredibly done and what rhythm and drums.
Walter Futterweit I would put George Gershwin and John Williams in that group as well.
James Covington
yup
Yes, their rendering of Emerson, Lake & Palmer version of the song is nice.
I always thought the "common man" referred to humans, not Americans.
bmo Can't get get much more common than that.
Brilliant. Thank you
While I tend to be a strict purist, the transition to the upbeat ELP arrangement was a pleasant suprise. The orchestra members looked like they were having a great time with it. Very nice
Yes: their enjoyment was palpable.
Fabulous. I still have all my ELP albums from HS. Thanks for posting. Really takes me back.
Wonderful mix, always loved the ELP version and the symphony. Putting the two together is amazing.
WHAT A TREAT TO HEAR THIS POWERFUL MUSIC OF COPLAND WHAT A GREAT ORCH AND WHAT A SOUND THEY CAN MAKE..OUTSTANDING MUSICIANS...BRAVO..BRAVO.....
Loved it.The first half was my favorite part. How they were harmonizing and didn't miss a note

for working poeple song
GREAT JOB!!!!
Amazing, stunning, magnificent ...
If you listen to the long version done in Canada's OLYMPIC STADIUM YOU'LL GET A FEEL TO THE AWESOMENESS THAT, WAS KEITH EMERSON.
Chills spectacular. It works
VERY COOL !!
Ausgezeichnet! Vielen Dank!
I'm very psyched that I searched for this, nice work by all 😊❤
Magnificent! What an amazing version. A real head-banger and foot-tapper.
Great performance!
I absolutely adore this rendering of this piece! The trumpets at the beginning sound like one trumpet and t as they move into the harmony it is seamless and gorgeous!!

+fabiola leonardi I had the great privilege of attending the "Works" tour in 1977 while they still had the orchestra with them. It was magnificent!
Yeah, we had the good music, they have Justin Bieber
manca Sibelius .e hai ancora gli LP dei Nice ???
Fan of Copland, fan of ELP, this was fun!! Great music.
@@patriciadyar2482 so did I in Detroit, and they returned a few months later, sans orchestra, it was too expensive a tour. Still, two of the greatest shows I've ever seen!!

As a Copeland fan, I hope others will explore his other work. A wonderful composer of American music.
Copeland has some AMAZING compositions....such a Blessing
awesome. young girls and boys playing their heart outs

Absolutely fantastic
Fantastico, Maravilhoso, splendido,etc.

Excelente ejecución, tanto de la versión original de Copland, como de la versión de ELP que nunca había escuchado...gracias por compartirla.
What a great version!
