To The Stars! (Vocal Parts)

o the Stars!" 是奈杰尔-赫斯与贝德福德郡几所学校的孩子们独特合作的成果。这部作品随后在皇家阿尔伯特音乐厅的一场音乐会上演出，展示了贝德福德郡音乐服务处的工作。儿童合唱团与交响管乐队的非同寻常的组合令人激动，《致星空！》为乐队和合唱团带来了无与伦比的表演体验，同时在技术上也具有很高的要求和挑战性。在一段振奋人心的开场白之后，我们听到了火箭 "起飞 "的倒计时声，然后我们突然飞向了星球，在那里我们遇到了长着蓝色眼睛和粉色耳朵的外星人！在与黑洞短暂而可怕的交战之后，我们前往一个'充满奇迹的世界'，当我们离开太阳系时，乐曲在'和我们一起飞--飞向星空！'的壮观呼喊声中结束"

原文简介:
To the Stars! is the fruit of a unique collaboration between Nigel Hess and the children of several Bedfordshire schools who were asked to contribute ideas for a libretto based on the themes of space travel and exploration. The work was then performed during a concert at the Royal Albert Hall showcasing the work of Bedfordshire County Music Services. The unusual combination of children’s choir and symphonic wind band is wonderfully exciting, and To the Stars! provides an incomparable performing experience for both band and choir, and is also technically demanding and challenging. After a rousing introduction, we hear a countdown to our rocket’s ‘blast off’, and suddenly we are heading out to the planets where we meet aliens with blue eyes and pink ears! After a brief but terrifying skirmish with a black hole we head off to a ‘world of many wonders’, and as we leave our solar system behind, the piece finishes with a spectacular shout of ‘Fly with us - to the stars!’.
