樂曲解說

在城堡與國王的年代，人們常會在森林深處發現一座隱蔽的城堡，甚至可能不為外界所知。中世紀時期，通訊與交通皆十分有限，許多人一生中行走的距離不會超過離家幾英里。
由 Randy Navarre 創作的《森林中的城堡》，是一首非常適合學生首次音樂會演出的理想作品。樂曲容易演奏，卻效果出色；音符主要運用自然音階最初的幾個音，和聲則採用該音階的基本和絃，完全不含升降記號。這首作品能讓年輕音樂家自信登臺、引以為傲。

In the days of castles and kings, one would find a castle tucked away in the woods, maybe not even known to anyone outside the area. In the Middle Ages, communication and travel were limited. Many people never traveled more than a few miles from home. A Castle in the Woods, by Randy Navarre, is an ideal composition for students to perform on their first concert. It is easy and sounds great. The notes are in the first few pitches of the diatonic scale, and the chords of that scale are played with no accidentals. Your young musicians will be proud to perform this!
