Echoes of Spring: A Candlelight Concert

The Lima Symphony Orchestra welcomes the beauty of the season with Echoes of Spring: A Candlelight Concert, conducted by James Blachly. The program opens with the timeless serenity of Adagio for Strings by Barber and continues with the beloved Violin Concerto by Mendelssohn, one of the most lyrical and virtuosic works in the violin repertoire. The evening concludes with the radiant Appalachian Spring Suite by Copland, a work that beautifully captures the optimism and renewal of the American landscape. Presented in the warm glow of candlelight, this program offers an atmosphere of reflection, lyricism, and the quiet promise of spring.
