LineUp

Founded in 1940, the Utah Symphony is a major American orchestra featuring 85 musicians. Led notably by Maurice Abravanel from 1947 to 1979, the orchestra gained international acclaim for its recordings and tours, eventually merging with Utah Opera in 2002.
Berkeley, California-born composer, conductor, and pianist/clarinetist/organist Teddy Abrams became conductor of the Louisville Orchestra in 2014, then the youngest head of a major U.S. symphony. His Decca albums include All In and The Order of Nature.
Appalachian Spring is a landmark American ballet created by choreographer Martha Graham and composer Aaron Copland, which premiered in 1944 and earned Copland the Pulitzer Prize for Music. Originally scored for a 13-piece chamber orchestra and later arranged into a celebrated orchestral suite, the work captures the American pioneer spirit and famously features variations on the Shaker hymn Simple Gifts.
