What did you guys think? I loved it. I felt it fit the occasion very well. John Williams did an excellent job with this, and YES I know he took it from Copland, but it was intentional.
Obviously it was very well performed.

I agree. I've always liked the way a violin, cello and clarinet sound together. The piano part was nice and subtle, too. It was a nice piece for the occasion.
