Scenes from New Jersey

《新澤西風光》以音樂的形式展現了新澤西州的方方面面。第一樂章以舒緩的和絃展現了基塔廷尼山脈的雄偉壯觀。接下來的《爵士新澤西》展現了紐華克的爵士樂場景。這首藍調樂章向在紐華克起步的爵士樂大師們致敬。最後一個樂章 "禁止左轉！"幽默地描述了一位司機對新澤西州禁止左轉的規定感到非常沮喪。快板的節奏和現代的和聲幫助刻畫了司機的沮喪情緒，為這首組曲畫上了一個瘋狂的句號

原文簡介:
Scenes from New Jersey creates musical snapshots of the diverse aspects of the state. The grandeur of "The Kittatinny Mountains" is explored in the first movement with sweeping chords that build momentum. The Newark jazz scene is captured next in "Jazzy Jersey." This bluesy movement pays homage to the jazz greats who got their start in Newark. The final movement, "No Left Turn!" is a humorous account of a driver becoming very frustrated over the "no left turn" rules in the state of New Jersey. The molto allegro tempo and contemporary harmonies help portray the frustration of the driver, bringing the suite to a frenzied conclusion.
