Last Door of Light op. 293 for chamber orchestra 馬克斯威爾．戴維斯 室內合奏團 總譜 朔特版

彼得-麥克斯韋爾-大衛斯在創作這首曲子時想到了個人和社區的脆弱性，特別是氣候變化問題和他在奧克尼群島的家，那裡正受到海平面上升的威脅。然而，這一主題並非完全消極： 大衛斯說，我們都必須進入最後一扇光明之門，但這段旅程充滿光明和歡樂。作品開頭的旋律是大衛斯在 70 年代創作的，但從未使用過，可能是一首海島民謠旋律，在整部作品中不斷變化，最後在結尾處達到神化

原文簡介:
Peter Maxwell Davies was thinking of individual and communal vulnerability when composing this piece, especially in relation to the problem of climate change and his home in the Orkney Islands, which is under threat from rising sea levels. However, this theme is not a completely negative one: Davies claims we must all enter the last door of light but the journey is full of light and joy. The melody at the start of the work, which Davies composed in the ‘70’s and never used, could be an Island folk melody and is subject to constant transformation throughout the piece before reaching apotheosis at the end.
