Here is the description from internet about the composer and his work :
Aaron Copland (November 14, 1900 -- December 2, 1990) was an American nationalist composer of concert and film music, as well as an accomplished pianist. Instrumental in forging a distinctly American style of composition, he was widely known as "the dean of American composers". Copland's music achieved a balance between modern music and American folk styles. His first published work was The Cat and the Mouse (1920), a piano solo piece based on a Jean de la Fontaine fable.
The Cat and the Mouse is delightfully literal: scurryings up and down the keyboard depict the mouse, while quiet chords assume the character of the cat stalking its prey. The mouse's music alternates more rapidly with that of the cat as the chase presses on, until the musics overlap. In five dramatic chords, the cat pounces, dirge for the poor mouse -- apparently caught and eaten -- follows. Nevertheless, a final, unexpected mischievous scamper suggest that the mouse may have survived to someday lead yet another chase. ~ Robert Gold, All Music Guide
