In this excellent selection Susan Chilcott and Iain Burnside grasp the subtlety of Copland's idiom. The two sets of Old American Songs are rightly sung in an American accent in a range of styles from the soulful-nostalgic of 'Long time ago' to the knockabout comedy of 'I bought me a cat'. But 'Simple Gifts', so well known from Appalachian Spring, is taken well below the marked tempo.
