On this day in 1944, Martha Graham’s Appalachian Spring premiered in Washington, D.C. The uniquely American and modern ballet, featuring Aaron Copland’s musical genius, Isamu Noguchi’s spatial acuity, and Edythe Gilfond’s imaginative costumes, changed the fabric of American culture by articulating the pioneer story through the Graham Technique, and uniting the public through its populist themes.

Copland erzählte später oft mit Schmunzeln, wie Zuhörer ihm begeistert bericht

Diese Musik strahlt. ✨ Und das wünschen wir euch auch für euer Wochenende! 🥰 🎶 Enthusiastisch, lebendig, positiv – diese Musik hat auch damals die The New York Times gefeiert. Für die Originalbesetzung nahm Aaron Copland ein Kammerensemble mit dreizehn Instrumenten. Die Bearbeitung als Orchester-Suite hat er später angefertigt und am 4. Oktober 1944 aufgeführt. 1945 erhielt "Appalachian Spring" den Pulitzer Prizes-Preis für Musik. 💪 ❣️ Das ganze Werk, gespielt in der Elbphilharmonie vom NDR E
