Arctic Fire (from Portraits of the North)

北極之火》的音樂以電影的手法描繪了北方的許多不同景象--冰山上閃爍的深紅色陽光、北極光的光芒、紅枝山茱萸的熾熱、緋紅的落日以及生活在那裡的人們的火熱精神。樂曲以一系列戲劇性的音樂快照作為開場和結尾。在這之間，音樂通過各種風格的紋理和情緒進行演變和轉換。這是一部配樂出色、效果極佳的管樂作品。時長5:15

原文簡介:
The cinematic approach to the music of Arctic Fire portrays many different images of the north – the crimson sunlight glinting off the icebergs, the radiance of the Northern Lights, the blaze of the red twig dogwood, the scarlet red sunsets, and the fiery spirit of the people who live there. The piece opens and closes with a series of dramatic musical snapshots. Inbetween, the music evolves and transforms through a wide range of stylistic textures and moods. A brilliantly scored and effective setting for winds. Dur: 5:15
難度: 4
