To listeners and critics at its first performance this piece seemed to reveal Copland as a follower of new trends" (Grove 4:721). Bernstein, who collaborated frequently with Copland, conducted the premiere. The recipient of this copy was Phillip Ramey, a composer and writer who was also one of Copland's closest friends.
