Keeping Score - Copland and the American Sound - Michael Tilson Thomas

This show is about an American hero who rose to the occasion to create music for a troubled country. We really could have used someone like him during the past few years! The documentary looks at a part of Copland's life that spans an important point in our history. MTT does a masterful job at balancing the music with the talk and the hour goes by quickly. The performance is superb and has a terrific feature where you can take yourself from the audience and pretend that you are listening with the Musicians onstage.
