Copland Passacaglia

Totally awesome piece, even though it's mildly modern.

It's not on gamingforce or anything, sadly. 

For us musicians, the music of Beethoven is the pillar of fire and cloud of mist which guided the Israelites through the desert.  (Roughly quoted, Franz Liszt.)

 Dear Dnephi:
 Copland died in 1990, so he's very under copyright. It's a shame, but it will be very difficult to find his works on the internet.
 Anyway, good search!
 Best!

Not a problem, I'll be fine ;), although I believe the work was published in 1922, and so it would therefore not be under copyright?

 Dear Dnephi:
 The copyright is related to the year of death of the composer, not the year of publication. This way, Copland's public domain only in 2060...
 Best wishes!
