RE: Goodman/Copland

Just out of curiosity, I pulled out 9 different recordings of the Copland Concerto which I had in my library. I may have others, and will also check them if possible.

As to the note discrepancy in m.413 and m.415:

Goodman/Copland (Columbia Symphony) - C natural
Gary Gray/Newstone (Royal Philharmonic) - C natural
Wright/Copland (Boston Symphony) Tanglewood 1980 (live) - C natural

Stoltzman/Lawrence Smith (London Symphony) - Cb
Stoltzman/Michael Tilson Thomas (London Symphony) - Cb
Paul Meyer/Zinman (English Chamber Orchestra) - Cb
Hosford/Fischer (Chamber Orchestra of Europe) - Cb
Blount/Davies (Orchestra of St. Luke's) - Cb
Sabine Meyer/Franck (Melbourne Symphony) live 2002 - Cb

What does jump out is that both recordings with Copland conducting, the performer (Goodman, Wright) played C naturals.
Gary Gray (who in the cd booklet notes) says he played it for (and apparently worked with) Copland, also plays C natural.

If anyone else has additional Copland recordings, I'd be interested in noting whether the performer played C natural or Cb, as there seem to be advocates for both...GBK
