The exploration by John Wilson of Copland's major orchestral output with the BBC Philharmonic has now reached Volume 3, with this invigorating programme recorded in surround-sound. It opens with An Outdoor Overture, a cheerful and breezy piece which Copland composed in 1938, intending to spearhead an initiative encouraging 'American Music for American Youth'. Originally written for organ and orchestra, the First Symphony is presented here in it's revised version (1926-28) for large orchestra. The six concise movements of Statements (1932-35) introduce a new style, their gritty soundscapes being stunning examples of what Copland later would refer to as 'hard-bitten' pieces. The concluding work is the expressive, fantastical Dance Symphony (1929) which explores different styles of symphonic movements, it's dark aura a residue of it's origin as a ballet on a grotesque vampire theme, composed 1922-25 and named Grohg. The symphony has remained a highly controversial piece ever since.
