Mount Rushmore

拉什穆尔山 "是向南达科他州基思通附近拉什穆尔山花岗岩面上雕刻的雕塑致敬。这首组曲的每个乐章都代表了雕刻在山上的四位伟大总统中的一位。华盛顿狂歌》是一首献给乔治-华盛顿的雄壮的狂歌，使用了双音和弦，与抒情的旋律形成鲜明对比。代表亚伯拉罕-林肯的是《人民的名义》（Of the People），这首令人肃然起敬的乐曲展现了林肯缓慢而稳健的矜持，而这正是林肯领导风格的标志。西奥多-罗斯福》（Theodore Roosevelt）使用了在键盘上上下移动的分解和弦，表现了西奥多-罗斯福粗犷、坚韧的个性。在《建筑师》中，托马斯-杰斐逊的才华在轻快流畅的旋律中熠熠生辉，其中不乏节拍的变化和抒情的瞬间"

原文简介:
Mount Rushmore is a tribute to the sculpture carved into the granite face of Mount Rushmore, near Keystone, South Dakota. Each movement of this suite represents one of the four great presidents carved into the mountain. "Washington Fanfare" is a majestic fanfare to George Washington and uses bi-tonal chords that contrast with a lyrical melody. Abraham Lincoln is represented by "Of the People," a reverent piece showing the slow and steady reserve that was a hallmark of Lincoln's leadership. Using broken chords that move up and down the keyboard, the rough and tough personality of Theodore Roosevelt is featured in the rugged "The Rough Rider." In the "The Architect," Thomas Jefferson's brilliance shines through in a light and flowing melody that features meter changes and lyrical moments.
