Michael Sussman told me that he once played the Copland Concerto with Copland there and asked him about the note discrepancy based on the Goodman recording. Copland said "What do you mean?" and Sussman replied with "Well, Benny played a C natural here, is that what you want?"...After Copland, seeming surprised, played around on the piano with that, he said "No, play what's written," so the Cb.
Ultimately, it seems somewhat insignificant since it's been such a discrepancy, but from this experience, it seems that the Cb is what Copland wanted.
