As It Fell Upon A Day
Copland, A

Aaron Copland presents As It Fell Upon a Day for flute, soprano, and clarinet.

'When Copland was studying with Nadia Boulanger in Paris in the early twenties, one of his assignments was to compose a piece for flute and clarinet. He came upon a poem by the 17th century English poet Richard Barnefield and decided to add a voice part to the Boulanger assignment. Copland explained: 'The poem had the simplicity and tenderness that moved me to attempt to evoke that poignant expression musically.' As It Fell. . . had its premiere in Paris in 1924.'
