The Empire State

帝國之州 "歌頌了紐約州及其一些最受歡迎的旅遊勝地。第一樂章以紐約市為背景，描繪了作曲家在博因頓大道上的第一個家。樂曲節奏明快，八分音符搖擺，以歡快的節奏向這座偉大的城市致敬。第二樂章 "阿迪朗達克遐想 "描繪了阿迪朗達克州立公園。這是一首緩慢而寧靜的小夜曲，旋律抒情，低音線伴奏悠長。當然，沒有尼亞加拉大瀑布的紐約州之行是不完整的。在這首組曲的最後樂章《尼亞加拉》中，通過使用整個鍵盤音域和貫穿整個樂章的豐富和聲，再現了瀑布的聲音。中級（英國考試 3-4 級）"

原文簡介:
The Empire State celebrates the state of New York and some of its most popular tourist destinations. New York City is featured in the first movement with a trip to the composer's first home "On Boynton Avenue." The fast tempo of this piece and swing eighth notes create an upbeat tribute to this great city. The second movement, "Adirondack Reverie," depicts Adirondack State Park. It is a slow and peaceful serenade with a lyrical melody and extended bass line accompaniment. And, of course, no trip to New York State would be complete without a visit to Niagara Falls. In "Niagara," the final movement of this suite, the sound of the waterfall is recreated by using the entire range of the keyboard and rich harmonies that grow throughout the movement. Intermediate (UK Exam Grades 3-4).
