Music inspired by nature and renewal with virtuoso Luke Welch performing the recently re-emerged Florence Price Piano Concerto, a spring-like story of re-emergence after its long lost manuscript was found. Price includes a toe-tapping rhythm inspired by the African juba dance.
Copland’s Appalachian Spring opens with a slowly blooming introduction to musical themes that evoke a sense of open skies, fresh beginnings and simple pleasures.
In his lush Pastorale Symphony, Beethoven shares his solo woodland walks with us, complete with woodwind bird calls and thunderous lower strings. You’ll leave refreshed with a spring in your step!
Matthew Jones, Music Director
