The Carolinas 耶誕頌歌

鄧尼斯-亞歷山大（Dennis Alexander）的《卡羅萊納》是對南北卡羅萊納州的音樂憧憬。三個樂章代表了這兩個州的鮮明特色。組曲以《盛開的山茱萸》開始，向北卡羅來納州的州花致敬。這個多彩的樂章在鋼琴上再現了紅雀（北卡羅來納州的州鳥）的聲音，預示著美麗的山茱萸花的盛開。南卡羅來納州在第二樂章 "Dancin' the Myrtle Beach Shag "中得到了突出表現，活潑地演繹了這一著名的舞蹈風格。在《卡羅萊納海岸的風暴》中，這兩個州都得到了展現。最後一個樂章捕捉了一場即將來臨的風暴在南北卡羅萊納州海岸的威力、憤怒和戲劇性"

原文簡介:
Dennis Alexander's The Carolinas is a musical vision of North and South Carolina. The three movements represent distinct characteristics of these states. The suite begins with "Dogwoods in Bloom," a tribute to the state flower of North Carolina. This colorful movement recreates the sound of the red cardinal (North Carolina's state bird) on the piano, signaling the bloom of the beautiful dogwood blossoms. South Carolina is highlighted in the second movement, "Dancin' the Myrtle Beach Shag," a lively rendition of this famous dance style. Both states are featured in "Storm on the Carolina Coast." This final movement captures the power, fury and drama of an impending storm bearing down on the coasts of North and South Carolina.
