Written By Brett Mitchell

DENVER — Brett Mitchell has released a new video exploring Aaron Copland’s Suite from The Tender Land.

Presented live at Boettcher Concert Hall in April 2018 as part of a program entitled The American Voice, Mr. Mitchell leads the Colorado Symphony in demonstrations exploring what makes the 1954 opera sound so distinctly American.

All three movements of the Suite are explored:

I. Introduction and Love Music
II. Party Scene
III. Finale: The Promise of Living

Watch the complete demonstration above, or learn more on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.
