Arlington (Where Giants Lie Sleeping)

这首作品是为了向埋葬在华盛顿特区附近阿灵顿国家公墓的一代又一代美国军人致敬而创作的，具有强烈的感情色彩，是任何纪念场合或爱国音乐会的最佳选择。台下的小号宣布了开场主题，随后是令人肃然起敬的乐曲和庄严的《我的祖国，属于你》（My Country, 'Tis of Thee）。乐曲逐渐发展和增强，在熟悉的赞美诗我们祖先的神中达到了一个英雄般的高潮，然后随着台下小号的返回，乐曲又回到了宁静和反思的情绪中。持续时间7:30

原文简介:
Composed as a tribute to generations of American servicemen and women buried at Arlington National Cemetery near Washington, D.C., this powerful and emotional work is a fitting addition to any memorial occasion or patriotic concert. Offstage trumpets announce the opening theme followed by reverent strains and a solemn statement of My Country, 'Tis of Thee. The piece develops and builds gradually, reaching a heroic climax with the familiar hymn God of Our Fathers before returning to a quiet and reflective mood as the offstage trumpets return. Dur: 7:30
难度: 4
