Originally released on compact disc to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the birth of America's favorite composer, now on LP for the first time!

One of Reference Recordings' most beloved and best reviewed releases, this Reference Mastercuts 33 1/3 rpm 200 gram vinyl offering was half-speed mastered by Paul Stubblebine, pressed by Quality Record Pressings and comes housed in a deluxe gatefold jacket.

“...There has never been a stereo recording of Copland's Third that approaches the concert-hall experience. Until now. This recording clearly has great value as a musical experience, but it also sets a new standard as a sonic showcase for a nearly impossible-to-record work.” - Arthur B. Lintgen, The Absolute Sound

“A compelling performance of the Third Symphony. I think this is among the best recordings since Bernstein - and the sound is spectacular.” - Peter Dickinson, Gramophone

“This is the best interpretation of the Copland Third in a generation, and the sound is Keith Johnson at his considerable best. That is to say, jaw-dropping and a revelation.” - Harry Pearson, The Absolute Sound

"Not only is it one of the most natural sounding albums in Reference Recordings, the excellent performance make this more than just a sonic spectacular (though it certainly is that).. The record is among the more convincingly realistic I know... You'll hear a remarkably lifelike sense of ambience, the orchestral weight and volume filling the hall. Tonality is spot-on. Throughout brass choirs are throaty, richly textured, and creamy; strings are sweet, and one also experiences the sense of wood and rasp of bow against string, and the percussion has notable texture and detail. Dynamics, too, which can sometime seem extreme in Johnson's work, are beautifully wide and explosive, yet nuanced. A true reference recording." - Wayne Garcia, The Absolute Sound
