The Hounds of Spring A Concert Overture for Winds 序曲

阿爾弗雷德-裡德（Alfred Reed，1921-2005 年）是美國最多產、最常被演奏的作曲家之一。《春之獵犬》創作於 1980 年，靈感來自阿爾傑農-查理斯-斯溫伯恩（Algernon Charles Swinburne）的詩歌《卡裡登的阿塔蘭塔》（Atalanta in Calydon）。在這首音樂會序曲中，裡德捕捉到了詩中所表達的青春奔放和柔情似水的愛情元素。羅伯特-朗菲爾德（Robert Longfield）在保持原作形式和原意的基礎上，巧妙地為年輕樂隊縮短和改編了這部作品。長度5:30

原文簡介:
Alfred Reed (1921-2005) was one of America's most prolific and frequently performed composers. The Hounds of Spring was composed in 1980 and was inspired by the poem “Atalanta in Calydon” by Algernon Charles Swinburne. In this concert overture, Reed captures the elements of youthful exuberance and tenderness of love expressed in the poem. Remaining true in form and intent to the original, Robert Longfield has masterfully shortened and adapted this work for younger bands. Dur: 5:30
