Dreams of a Midsummer Night 總譜

仲夏夜之夢》以序曲的風格寫成，它不是一首描繪劇中具體動作的音調詩，而是用主題來表現莎士比亞所鍾愛的喜劇中的人物。這些主題包括：派克的雜技和調皮的聲音（m. 20）、代表鄉下人的農夫般的曲調（m. 62）、波頓的頭變成驢頭後的叫聲（m. 80）以及簡單而優美的情人主題（m. 117）。德彪西的《月光曲》（第 139 小節）為這個夜晚增添了一絲激情和魔力"

原文簡介:
Written in the style of an overture, "Dreams of a Midsummer Night" is not a tone poem depicting specific actions in the play, but instead uses themes to represent characters in Shakespeare's beloved comedy. These themes include: the acrobatic and mischievous sounds of Puck (m. 20), a peasant-like tune representing the rustics (m. 62), Bottom's braying after his head is transformed into that of a donkey's (m. 80), and a simple yet beautiful lover's theme (m. 117). A hint of Debussy's "Claire de Lune" (m. 139), adds to the passion and magic of the night.
