Fanfare for the Common Man,...best recording in your experience?


Like you, I have favorite music and favorite recordings of that music.  I would appreciate your experience with what you have known to be the best recording of Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man".  I am interested in both the sound quality and performance.   Thanks.

Let me preface this by saying I’m not a huge Telarc fan (digital recordings) but I have this title on both vinyl (pressed in Germany) and compact disc (Japan). Both copies were purchased new upon release. I’m fairly certain the vinyl was only pressed once. I am not sure whether the compact disc has been reissued over time.

 

Copland – Appalachian Spring / Rodeo / Fanfare for the Common Man

Catalog ID: DG 10078 (from the LP)

 

The performance features Louis Lane conducting the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. I have always found the performance and sound quality to be excellent.
