Grover's Corners (from Our Town)
Roll over or click to zoom in
Composed in 1940 for the screen version of Thornton Wilder's play
Our Town, Copland used a clean, yet distinctive harmonic palette and calming style for the soundtrack, in order to portray pre-World War II homespun values and sense of security. This carefully adapted version of “Grover's Corners” uses short soloistic passages mixed with lyric moments for the full ensemble in creating a tender and rewarding setting. Dur: 2:30
