Mitropoulos Conducts Copland, Sherwood, Ginastera, Guarnieri and Barber

It's an interesting melange of music with very poor recording standards, perhaps because of the 50-year-old recording dates!






01. Appalachian Spring, Suite - Aaron Copland (23:23)
02. Introduction and Allegro - Robert Sherwood (9:42)
03. Creole Dance, Overture - Alberto Ginastera (9:10)
04. Prologo y Fuga - Camargo Guarnieri (7:12)
05. Medea's Meditation and Dance of Vengeance, op.23a - Samuel Barber (12:47)

So, can any of you tell me if Dimitri Mitropoulos is really a "legendary conductor" in somebody's opinion?

 
 See you Monday.
