The first warm, fragrant breezes of spring waft through the pages of two beloved works: Copland’s Appalachian Spring, a tender portrayal of rural American life, and Sibelius’s Fifth Symphony, with its heart-stopping vision of swans soaring across an April sky. Plus, Stephen Waarts makes his debut with your Oregon Symphony to perform Samuel Barber’s stunning violin concerto.
