Songs of Sailor and Sea
水手與大海之歌》歌頌了人類對大海永恆的迷戀,以及數百年來海員們與大海的驚濤駭浪和神秘深海的搏鬥。受美國海軍樂隊的委託,這部三樂章作品以'Sea Chanty'描繪了船上生活,以'Whale Song'描繪了海洋生物,最後以'Racing the Yankee Clipper'描繪了美國快船。擴大的打擊樂豐富了這一戲劇性的音樂敘事。這是對音樂會樂隊曲目的重大貢獻!(時長 7:57)

原文簡介:
Songs of Sailor and Sea celebrates man's eternal fascination with the sea and the centuries of seamen who have battled its powerful waves and mysterious depths. Commissioned by the United States Navy Band, this three-movement work depicts shipboard life with a 'Sea Chanty,' creatures of the sea with 'Whale Song,' and finally, the American Clipper Ships with 'Racing the Yankee Clipper.' Expanded percussion richly enhances this dramatically descriptive musical narrative. This is a major contribution to the concert band repertoire! (7:57)
