"Freedom is a noble thing! / Freedom makes man to have liking: / Freedom all solace to man gives, / He lives at ease that freely lives. // A Noble heart may have no ease, / Nor aught beside that may him plese / If Freedom fail. / For free liking is yearned for over all other thing, / Nor he that aye have lived free / May know well the misery, The anger, and the wretched doom / That is coupled to foul thralldom; / But if he hath essayed it / Then throughout all he should it wit; / And should think freedom more to prize / Than all the gold in world that is." "A patriotic work for chorus and orchestra written originally for a non-professional chorus. Copland confined himself to two-part choral writing and to introducing the chorus only in the final third. As he wanted to 'Make a big noise,' a large battery of percussion is called for in the orchestra. The piece was revised later for a performance conducted by Robert Shaw."-Vivian Perlis, 1998. An unflinching rebuke to Senator McCarthy of Wisconsin. "Freedom had surely been on Copland's mind when he found himself ensnared in the McCarthy-era political witch hunts. On April 4, 1949, Life magazine published a spread entitled 'Dupes and Fellow Travelers Dress Up Communist Fronts,' which included 50 photo portraits, including Copland's own. . . . Copland might very well have felt proud of the company in which he found himself: Dorothy Parker, Arthur Miller, Langston Hughes, Albert Einstein, Norman Mailer, Susan B. Anthony II, Lillian Hellman, and Copland's protégé Leonard Bernstein were among the 'dupes' pictured with him in the Life article."--MIT Libraries, "150 Years in the Stacks." 0.80.
