raham’s Appalachian Spring by Melissa Sherwood
This month, we're celebrating the art of dance.
In 2019, the Martha Graham Dance Company performed the iconic American classic Appalachian Spring at PEAK Performances at Montclair State University. They also performed a work inspired by Appalachian Spring by choreographer Troy Schumacher and composer Augusta Read Thomas, The Auditions.
The performances celebrated the 75th anniversary of Martha Graham’s classic, which features the Pulitzer Prize-winning music of Aaron Copland and the original Noguchi set used at the Library of Congress premier performance in 1944.
