A Must-Have CD

gobirds2 | New England | 11/14/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a must-have album. Why is this not available? You have Copland, Ives, Gould, Herrmann, Moross and others. These are great American composers. I have never seen such a well rounded and representive body of works from so many great Americans. Go out and find a copy of this one. It's great!"
