In the Valley of the Sun

受太阳城（亚利桑那州）音乐会乐队的委托，《在太阳谷》采用了三部序曲的形式，以欢快而富有节奏感的西部风格主题开场。缓慢的中段主题以流畅而棱角分明的旋律描绘了亚利桑那州沙漠的美景。在第三段中，西部风情再次出现，为整部作品画上了一个激动人心、催人奋进的句号。(3.5 级）持续时间5:50

原文简介:
Commissioned by the Sun City (AZ) Concert Band, In the Valley of the Sun is composed in a three-part overture format opening with a rollicking and rhythmic Western-style theme. The slow middle theme musically depicts the beauty of the Arizona desert with a flowing, yet angular melody. In the third section, the Western flavor returns to draw the work to an exciting and driving conclusion. (Grade 3.5) Dur: 5:50
难度: 3.5
