Whirligigs

這首極具吸引力的組曲由三個簡潔的樂章組成，描繪了早在 16 世紀就流行於歐洲的各種類型的 "旋渦 "裝置或 "風玩具"。行軍士兵中的 "行軍機器 "是可選的，營造出士兵列隊行進的效果，而採花女則描繪了一個人物在採花時不斷上下移動的流暢動作。最後一個樂章 "飛馬"描繪了一個非常活躍的旋渦，它的腳在移動，翅膀在拍打。對於年輕演奏者來說，這是一個獨特而富有描述性的節目選擇。長度4:15

原文簡介:
This attractive suite of three concise movements depicts various types of “whirligig” contraptions, or “wind-toys” which were popular in Europe as early as the 16th century. Marching Soldier features an optional “marching machine” creating the effect of soldiers on parade, while Flower Lady depicts a figure in constant fluid motion moving up and down while picking flowers. The concluding movement, The Flying Horse, describes a very active whirligig with moving feet and flapping wings. A unique and descriptive programming option for young players. Dur: 4:15
