"A pioneer celebration in spring around a newly-built farmhouse in the Pennsylvania hills in the early part of the last century.

At the end, the couple are left quiet and strong in their new house."--Summarized by Edwin Denby (Copland's librettist for the 1937 high school opera The Second Hurricane) and as reported of the New York premiere in the Herald Tribune of May 15, 1945
