There's no singing in A Lincoln Portrait. It's a celebratory piece for orchestra including a narrator who recites quotations from Lincoln's speeches. Many different people have read the narration, from movie stars like Henry Fonda and Gregory Peck to sports figures and politicians. Copland himself narrated on a recording, as did Senator Adlai Stevenson and poet Carl Sandburg.
