West Virginia: The Mountain State

西維吉尼亞： 山地之州 "展現了這個阿巴拉契亞州的精神和美景。在第一樂章 "新河峽谷 "中，音樂描繪了歷史悠久的新河峽谷大橋及其周圍的美景。抒情的旋律和舒緩的和聲再現了該地區的壯麗景色。在第二樂章《阿巴拉契亞民謠》中，抒情性得以延續，這是一首溫柔的情歌。第三樂章 "提琴手的小調 "是一首歡快喧鬧的山地舞曲。隨著音樂調性的變化，整首樂曲都能聽到小提琴的弦音，最後以激昂的旋律結束

原文簡介:
West Virginia: The Mountain State captures the spirit and beauty of this Appalachian state. The historic New River Gorge Bridge and its surrounding beauty are portrayed musically in the first movement, "New River Gorge." The lyrical melodies and sweeping harmonies recreate the grandeur of the area. The lyricism continues in the second movement in "An Appalachian Ballad," a tender love song. The third movement, "Fiddler's Tune," is a fast and raucous mountain dance. Strains of the fiddle can be heard throughout the piece as the music changes keys and builds to a rousing end.
