As All the Heavens Were a Bell (with Optional Chorus) 合唱

作为向纽约市消防局致敬的委托作品，这部令人感动的作品于今年 3 月在曼哈顿为消防员举行的一场激动人心的演出中首演。这首作品以震撼人心的铜管大合唱开场，伴以木管乐器的华彩乐章。随后，用萦绕在耳边的声乐色彩（用 F 圆号提示）对《美国》（My Country, 'Tis Of Thee）的旋律进行了敏感的处理。国家动荡不安的景象在强烈的驱动力和强劲的乐段中得到了描绘，并在合唱和乐队的伴奏下发展成为对美国的全面描绘，令人叹为观止。这是向 9/11 事件中的英雄们致敬的真正壮丽的音乐"

原文简介:
Commissioned as a tribute to the Fire Department of New York City, this immensely moving work was premiered at an emotional performance for the firefighters in Manhattan this past March. The composition opens with a striking brass fanfare accompanied by woodwind flourishes. A sensitive treatment of the melody from America (My Country, 'Tis Of Thee) follows using haunting vocal colors (cued in F Horns). The nation in turmoil is depicted in an intensely driving and powerful section which evolves marvelously into a full-blown treatment of America with chorus and band. A truly magnificent musical tribute to the heroes of 9/11.
