Millennium

千禧年》于 1998 年首次发行，今年由阿尔弗雷德首次录制。这首现代风格的序曲曾获得 1998 年 N.S.O.A. 作曲比赛的冠军，从头至尾都极具震撼力，充满情感。在一段不祥的引子之后，铜管乐组齐声奏出了英雄的主旋律，整个管弦乐队以打击乐、大调式伴奏。随后是极富美感的抒情副主题，先由大提琴齐奏，然后由整个乐队演奏。第三段也是最后一段是狂野而充满活力的进行曲，由铜管与木管和弦乐对奏，最后雄壮地重奏主旋律。理查德-迈耶的配乐丰富多彩、充满想象力，交响乐团的每一个声部都参与其中，为学生交响乐团带来了一部听起来非常成熟、但可演奏的'巡回演出'"

原文简介:
Millennium, recorded this year by Alfred for the first time, was first released in 1998. Winner of the 1998 N.S.O.A. composition contest, this contemporary-sounding overture is extremely powerful and full of emotion from beginning to end. After a foreboding introduction, the heroic main theme is introduced by the brass section in unison, accompanied by the entire orchestra in a percussive, marcato style. A lyrical subordinate theme of extreme beauty follows, first stated by unison cellos, then picked up by the entire orchestra. The third and final section is a wild and energetic march, pitting brass against woodwinds and strings, leading into a final, majestic restatement of the main theme. Richard Meyer's colorful and imaginative scoring features every section of the symphony orchestra, resulting in a wonderfully mature-sounding, yet playable, 'tour de force' for the student orchestra.
