Bridge of the Gods

由波特兰俄勒冈交响乐团委约创作的《众神之桥》是一首戏剧性的三乐章交响诗，展现了美国原住民克里基塔特人讲述的关于喀斯喀特山脉火山和传奇桥梁起源的丰富多彩的传说。第一乐章（"Saghalie"）向强大的众神之首致敬，以雄伟的扇形主题为基础。第二乐章捕捉到了少女 "Loowit "的美丽，长笛和英国管的独奏伴随着轻柔的吟唱。最后一个乐章 "Tanmahawis "运用了鲜明的音群、参差不齐的旋律片段和节奏感极强的打击乐，描绘了强大桥梁被摧毁的场景。持续时间：8:50

原文简介:
Commissioned by the Oregon Symphonic Band in Portland, Bridge of the Gods is a dramatic three-movement symphonic poem presenting the colorful legend told by the Native American Klickitatst about the origins of the volcanic mountains of the Cascade range and legendary bridge. The first movement (“Saghalie”) pays tribute to the powerful chief of all gods and is based on a majestic fanfare theme. The second movement captures the beauty of the maiden “Loowit,” with haunting flute and English horn solos accompanied by soft chanting voices. The final movement, “Tanmahawis,” utilizes stark clusters, jagged melodic fragments, and rhythmic percussive energy as it depicts the destruction of the mighty bridge. Dur: 8:50

Recorded by the Oregon Symphonic Band – Michael Burch-Pesses, conductor
