    Our concert poster series celebrates timeless pieces thorough classical music history. This is our ode to Aaron Copland's ballet Appalachian Spring! This pastoral piece was written in 1944 and has become an American classic! We wanted to keep the design clean and uncomplicated, something that was important to Aaron Copland's music. There are slight subtle textural elements within the design - please see closeup photos. Appalachian Spring premiered with choreography by Martha Graham and set design by Isamu Noguchi. We also wanted to incorporate a nod to Noguchi's minimalist set within the design. The lyrics to shaker tune "Simple Gifts," which Copland uses in the composition, is also incorporated into the design. This print is perfect for music enthusiasts and adds a touch of interest to any space – from your living room to your music studio.

    Text:
    'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free
    'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be,
    And when we find ourselves in the place just right,
    'Twill be in the valley of love and delight.
    When true simplicity is gained,
    To bow and to bend we shan’t be ashamed,
    To turn, turn will be our delight,
    Till by turning, turning we come 'round right.
