The blog of conductor Jason Weinberger

The opening of Martha Graham’s Appalachian Spring, from Peter Glushanok’s 1958 film version for WQED Pittsburgh. Dancers are Martha Graham as The Bride, Stuart Hodes as The Husbandman, Bertram Ross as The Revivalist, Matt Turney as The Pioneer Woman and Yuriko, Helen McGehee, Ethel Winter and Miriam Cole as The Revivalists’ Flock. The stage design is by Isamu Nogochi.

[I’ll be performing this version of Copland’s score with the WCFSO on Saturday night.]
