Here's something I learned yesterday about the song for our Green Turtles puppet show Hoedown, while listening to Performance Today:
Aaron Copland visited a composer in Argentina who had just written a ballet about cowboys in Argentina. Soon after coming home he composed Rodeo, a ballet about American cowboys!
The theme of Hoedown is heard throughout the ballet, but the music from our puppet show is from the end.
You can read more about it and listen to the whole ballet by clicking HERE and "scrubbing" ahead to 20:50.
