Echoes of Spring bookend the opening concert of the Parker Concert Hall Summer Series as the program begins with Beethoven's cheerful sonata for piano and violin, and closes with Copland's celebrated score for Martha Graham's quintessentially American ballet, heard here in the original chamber orchestra version. In between, Brevard's Artist Faculty perform rarely heard works by Jean Françaix and Eve Beglarian.
