Synopsis
Today in 1987, Joan Tower premiered her composition Fanfare for the Uncommon Woman. The work, by one of the foremost American composers at the end of the twentieth century--male or female--is a direct response to Aaron Copland’s Fanfare for the Common Man. On today's "A Classical Day in the Life", we explore Tower's work and the uncommon woman to whom it's dedicated.
