AARON COPLAND Appalachian Spring (complete ballet)
MAURICE RAVEL Daphnis et Chloé (complete ballet)
Music Director Matthias Pintscher invites you to this must-see opening weekend featuring two spellbinding ballets performed in their entirety. Appalachian Spring, a shining example of Aaron Copland’s American sound, features the iconic melody “Simple Gifts.” French composer Maurice Ravel composed his ballet Daphnis et Chloé several decades earlier; his passionate melodies and lush orchestration paint a musical portrait of a dreamlike world filled with love and adventure.
