Towards the Western Horizon Concert Band Score and Parts 室內管樂團

這首樂曲的靈感來源於作品委託人的位址：德克薩斯州休斯頓莫爾斯街。這首樂曲是為了向那些成功地將一條電線浸沒在大西洋中，用摩爾斯電碼從美國向歐洲發送資訊的工程師們致敬。這種技術上的獨創性為橫跨大西洋的音樂資訊提供了完美的素材。這部作品探索了大西洋的廣袤無垠，並利用愛爾蘭旋律來慶祝電纜進入大西洋的時刻。長度6:55

原文簡介:
The inspiration for this piece came from the address of the person who commissioned the work: Morse Street, Houston, Texas. It pays tribute to the immense skill of the engineers who succeeded in submerging a wire across the Atlantic to send messages in morse code from America to Europe. This technical ingenuity provided the perfect source of material for a transatlantic musical message. This work explores the vast expanse of the Atlantic and makes use of Irish melodies to celebrate the point where the cable enters into the Atlantic Ocean. Dur: 6:55
難度: 2.5
