SUMMARY:Apalachian Spring
DESCRIPTION:Stockport Symphony Orchestra present \nRimsky-Korsakov May Night Overture\nCopland Appalachian Spring\nBrahms  Symphony No 1 \n24 May 2025 7.30 pm\n\nJulius Mauldin\, Jasper Lecon\, conductors \nCopland’s orchestral suite began life as a ballet telling of 19th-century American pioneers building a new  farmhouse. It is full of American tunes\, including the  well-known Shaker song\, Simple Gifts (later to become  “Lord of the Dance”)\, which Copland incorporated into  the music. He may have been thinking of a water source in the title but with a little poetic licence it falls nicely  into our seasonal theme this year. \nSo overawed by Beethoven’s symphonic genius was he that it took  Brahms 21 years to pluck up courage to unveil his first  symphony yet it proved such a triumph that it was once  referred to as Beethoven’s 10th. Buoyed by the success\, Brahms’ Second followed swiftly. It has stood  the test of time and the comparisons with Ludwig! \nTickets
