Appalachian Spring
Sunday, October 2, 2022
The season opens with a pair of works that have helped define the GCO. Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring, a captivating ballet score, originally known simply as "Ballet for Martha", famously features the beautiful shaker melody "Tis a Gift to be Simple," and Franz Schreker's lush Chamber Symphony, full of brilliant color and symphonic sweep; reminiscent of the golden age of movie scoring. This work is a true hidden gem and was featured in the GCO's Chamber Symphonies recording in 2012, which helped earn Blanton Alspaugh the GRAMMY for Classical Producer of the Year.
