The season concludes with a deeply personal and poignant reflection on the meaning of home.

Jennifer Higdon’s vibrant tribute to Atlanta’s skyline opens the program, capturing the city's dynamic energy through lush orchestration. Copland’s Suite from Appalachian Spring offers a contrasting portrayal of a couple trying to establish a homestead in rural America.
