One of my favorite sources for historical and contemporary commentary and analysis is Heather Cox Richardson. In this Tanglewood concert, Richardson narrates Aaron Copland's Lincoln Portrait. Given the current circumstances in which this country finds itself, I have never heard this done so powerfully or effectively, not least because I know what passions Richardson holds in her own mind and heart regarding the importance of our democracy and the dangers that threaten it today. Be inspired by this brief but truly significant performance!
