This Thanksgiving, explore cultural roots and the concept of “home.” Simon’s Tales draws on African American folklore, traditions, and spirituals, while Bielawa connects to violin soloist Tessa Lark's American roots in Appalachia in her work PULSE. Copland’s theme from Appalachian Spring, based on the Shaker hymn “Simple Gifts,” evokes simplicity, peace, and community. In contrast, Dvořák’s Symphony No. 7, written during a period of personal struggle, reflects his Czech heritage and the political turmoil of his homeland. PROGRAM
Carlos Simon: "Tales: A Folklore Symphony"
Lisa Bielawa: "PULSE" for violin and orchestra (Co-Commission)
Aaron Copland: Variations on a Shaker Melody from "Appalachian Spring"
