Appalachian Spring

It’s amazing that Aaron Copland had no title to his opus and was planning on releasing with the title Ballad for Martha because this work composed in 1944 embodied the mountaineer spirit and the natural appeal of the Appalachian pioneers in an incredible and instantly recognizable fashion today. Even without watching the video, the beautiful violin melodies, major key and upbeat melody give off  the images of nature, adventure and excitement that are common themes around the world. In fact, patriotic Chinese orchestra music carries much of the same aesthetic qualities of Appalachian Spring. What makes this piece unique is the choreography and the stage, which I cannot help but associate with The Sound of Music. It has the same child-like innocence and cheerfulness which warms the heart and should be a relaxing pleasure to listen to and watch for most people.
