Become Ocean is an American orchestral composition by John Luther Adams. The Seattle Symphony Orchestra commissioned the work and premiered it at Benaroya Hall, Seattle, on 20 and 22 June 2013. The work won the 2014 Pulitzer Prize for Music and the 2015 Grammy Award for Best Classical Contemporary Composition.[1]The work, in a single movement, was inspired by the oceans of Alaska and the Pacific Northwest. The composer took his title from a phrase of John Cage in honour of Lou Harrison,[2] and further explained his title with this note placed in his score:"Life on this earth first emerged from the sea. As the polar ice melts and sea level rises, we humans find ourselves facing the prospect that once again we may quite literally become ocean."[3]
亞當斯（John Luther Adams）的作品“變成海洋”（Become Ocean），這部作品曾經獲得2014年普利策音樂獎第一名以及2015年格萊美最佳古典當代作曲獎。約翰·凱奇闡釋了這首曲子的標題：地球上的生命最初是從海洋中誕生的。隨著極地冰層的融化和海平面的上升，我們人類發現自己正面臨著這樣的前景：我們可能再次成為海洋。

為什麼要介紹這個作品呢？因為這首曲子作曲的思路就是大海里的波浪。
樂隊被分為三個組，每個組有自己的起伏，而且每個組的頻率不一樣，在某些時刻，三個組一起達到高潮，就像三個波浪在疊加一樣。
