This is the most "classical" album I've ever recorded with the Pops, part of our commitment to the great music of this country. There are wonderful, well-known works here by Bernstein, Copland, and John Williams, as well as lesser-known gems by Ferde Grofe (who wrote the "Grand Canyon Suite"), Jerome Kern (most famous for "Showboat"), Howard Hanson, and others.
