Lincoln's words

Being of a musical bent, I cannot think of a better way to honor Lincoln's words than to listen to Aaron Copland's Lincoln Portrait. Written in 1942, Aaron Copland set Lincoln's words to music. You can read the text and link to an interview with the composer and a performance of the Lincoln Portrait at http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4165357
