Joseph Horovitz: Captain Noah And His Floating Zoo (SATB)

邁克爾-弗蘭德和約瑟夫-霍洛維茨。這首廣受歡迎的作品由單聲道或二聲部聲樂和鋼琴伴奏，可選配低音和鼓，以一場絢麗的暴風雨拉開序幕，在暴風雨中，可以聽到上帝在喃喃自語，訴說他對人類的不滿。接著，上帝按照《舊約》的故事指示諾亞如何建造方舟和挑選動物。在大量優美的獨唱和生動的合唱中，我們瞭解到在方舟中生活的困難以及世界最終的乾涸。樂譜中給出了聲樂獨唱的建議。半戲劇效果或舞臺效果的想法也會隨之出現。弦樂低音和鼓聲部分租用"

原文簡介:
Michael Flanders and Joseph Horovitz. This popular work for unison or two-part voices and piano with optional bass and drums opens with a splendid storm, above which God can be heard muttering about the irritations he finds with mankind. Following the Old Testament story God then instructs Noah how to build the ark and select animals. In a profusion of fine solos and lively choruses we learn about the difficulty of living under hatches and the eventual drying-out of the world. Suggestions for vocal solos given in the score. Ideas for semi-dramatic effects or stagings suggest themselves. String bass and drum parts on hire.
