The original 13-piece version of Copland’s masterpiece has become my favorite…it captures so much American beauty.
Magnificent! You people are Geniuses! And I appreciate your musical gifts! It makes me feel so good. So, thank you for blessing my life! Wow! I feel so peaceful. I believe I'm high! God Bless you ALL.
I love your rendition! Brought tears to my eyes! Bravo!
Great performance and thanks for posting. Other posted versions with higher view counts are not of this quality - I hope the youtube algorithm works outs for this channel. I would love to see studio/hall recordings of this ensemble with closer mics for a fuller sound.
Good news, when I searched the title of the piece in youtube, this one came up :)
Great playing, great music!
Very nice... It seems that this reduced version is most widely performed.
this is the original form!
Very nice. Is that with 13 performers, like the original. I think I heard that the pit of the theater for where this was commissioned was so small it allowed only that many.
This is a great piece for young conductors! Sadly, I only have its full score. Could you please let me know where I can purchase the parts? Thanks...
Shutong Li the chamber version of the Appalachian Spring Suite can be purchased on the Boosey and Hawkes website.

Why is there such a dearth of American good composers? Even Spain or the UK alone has more.
Probably because the US is hundreds of years younger as a country?
