A Thames Journey

泰晤士河之旅》是一部 10 分钟的作品，讲述了泰晤士河从起源于威尔特郡的几滴水到汇入大海的旅程。赫斯借鉴了泰晤士河沿岸的许多音乐元素，如威尔特郡的古老旋律、牛津郡的莫里斯舞、伯克郡的划船之歌等。由于音乐来源丰富多样，横跨数个郡和数个世纪，这首曲子成为赫斯迄今为止最受欢迎的管乐作品之一，也就很容易理解了"

原文简介:
A Thames Journey is a 10-minute work which follows the journey of the river Thames, from its origins as a few drops of water in Wiltshire to the point where it meets the open sea. Hess draws upon many musical links along the Thames, such as an old Wiltshire melody, morris dancing in Oxfordshire, boating songs from Berkshire. With such rich and diverse sources of music across several counties and centuries, this has quite understandably become one of Hess's most popular wind band works to date.
