No other piece of music in all my life has brought me to tears of uncontainable joy as often as has 'Appalachian Spring'. Admiration is one of my favorite emotions, and that Copland could have even conceived of such a remarkably evocative work, and then wrote it down for others to play, fills me with respect and reverence for his abilities. Without any hesitation, I know that this gem, plus the theme song for 'Twin Peaks' (both instrumental and vocal by Julee Cruise), 'I Am The Walrus' by The Beatles, and the original 1970 version of 'Why' by Yoko Ono are perenially my favorite pieces of music, Enjoy, John
