In 1995, New Age musician Nicholas created this music album that perfectly expresses the Grand Canyon with a genuine concern for protecting the earth's environment. Listening to the music of the Grand Canyon is an exciting adventure, as you can hear the long sounds echoing through the canyon walls. The Grand Canyon is the music of trees and plants. It allows you to see the most spectacular natural scenery. It contains a variety of the most exciting musical components, and its musical effects were recorded locally (again A characteristic of New Age music), it is worth noting that there is also a voice of Nicholas Gunn himself in the music, and there is also the voice of an indigenous Indian, Razor Saltboy.
Like all natural parks, the Grand Canyon has suffered from serious external threats to its reputation - air pollution, overcrowding, crime, lack of funding. Now people have recognized the Grand Canyon. The spiritual wealth and open-minded feeling it brings to us are unparalleled treasures in our lives. This is why these New Age musicians created the National Parks series - to awaken people's awareness of protecting nature. The composer and label will donate 10 percent of the album's proceeds to the National Park Service, a nonprofit organization that protects national parks.
Leave it as it is.
You cannot improve on it, not a bit.
The ages have been at work on it, and man can only mar it.
Leave it as it is
You can't improve it at all
It's been so long and all people have done is hurt it
Theodore Roosevelt, President of the United States of America, uttered these simple but powerful words when he visited the Grand Canyon in 1903. He expressed his profound understanding of nature conservation. It seems now , and in many places he is right.
As one of the seven natural wonders of the world, the Grand Canyon is irreplaceable. It is a land of gloomy souls, with mountain peaks like sentinels faithfully guarding the vertical cliffs that rise up, and beyond the cliffs lies the unfathomable Grand Canyon. Sharp stone slabs are like fossils of the floor of this ancient canyon, stretching in light and shadow along the ridges and between the cracks in the rocks. In that solemn atmosphere, the sunset and the fallen leaves of autumn are forever recorded on the rock walls of the Grand Canyon. People come to the canyon to experience the magnificence of nature. They are all shocked by the depth of the Grand Canyon. Every tourist - no matter which country he comes from - will calm down in front of the Grand Canyon and listen to the canyon passing through. The sound of the earth. The depth of it shocked everyone. It has become increasingly important since early Spanish explorers named it Grand Canyon more than 400 years ago.
When you meditate facing those well-defined rocks and towering stone walls, you can feel the most essential things in nature and hear their whispers confirming your existence. As you creep down along the limestone with livid spots, you can hear the long echo in the canyon, and you can feel the wind, rain and moonlight echoing silently in the endless space around you. The magic of the Grand Canyon lies in its numerous rock faults and the secrets hidden in the huge rock gaps. Covering an area of ??1,904 square miles (1.2 million acres), the Grand Canyon is an ideal home for wildlife, including mule deer, bighorn sheep, cougars, and coyotes.
There are many other smaller mammals, insects and amphibians and reptiles in the canyon. There are also more than 1,500 species of plants in the canyon. Wild roses, mahogany, pear, and cacti are all in the Grand Canyon. thrive in.
On the banks of the Colorado River, there is a settlement that was abandoned by the local Indians more than 800 years ago. It has the best-protected desert scenery there. The Anasazi Indian tribe—meaning: ancient people—were the first to inhabit the lowlands of the Grand Canyon, living peacefully here from about the fifth to the twelfth century AD. Approximately two thousand Anasazi camps were discovered in the Grand Canyon.
Although the Hopi tribe of New Mexico (residents of Indian villages in southeastern Arizona, USA) and the residents of 19 Indian villages are the continuation of this ancient civilization, the only tribe still living in the canyon is the Havasupai (meaning "people of the blue-green water"), their ancestors arrived here about 150 years after the Anasazi migrated to the canyon highlands. Havasupai maintained farming in the western part of the canyon for centuries.
Tracing back to the origins and ancient traditions of the American Indian tribes (Hualapai, Havasupai, Hopi, Navajo) will allow people to appreciate the mysterious nature of life on this land. The Paiute Indians call it Kaibab, or "lying mountain," Havasupai calls it Wikatata, or "rough edge," and Hakatai calls it "the roar caused by the torrent." The Hopi call it Sakwatupqa, and the Navajo call it Bidahaztii, which means "the way up the canyon cliffs." No matter what they call the Grand Canyon, they all believe that the Grand Canyon is a mysterious place created by God.
According to American Indian legends, every living thing in the world is related to a god. For the Havasupai tribe who still live in the lowlands of the canyon, the rocks in the canyon represent that God is watching over their tribe. Poets, writers and naturalists say that a journey through the canyon is a journey through time. Indeed, the canyon is a witness to natural history. The unsheltered rocks tell you stories of various geological periods. You can find here a record of the powerful collision between the continents of North America and Africa that created the Pacific Ocean. This collision Lifted what is now the Colorado Plateau. The rocks of the Grand Canyon tell the history of the land. The black rocks at the bottom of the canyon are 1.7 billion years old (the oldest rocks on earth). It shows that these mountains were once lifted and twisted for about 5 to 6 years. Miles high. The rocks with the shortest history in the canyon are volcanic sedimentary rocks, which are the result of massive river sediments and dune deposits in the canyon in the past.
These sedimentary rocks covered the entire region millions of years ago, and then slowly sank into the Pacific Ocean as the Earth's crust evolved. Within these limestones, sandstones, granites, and bright shales are preserved the fossils of life long ago. The fossils, which include prehistoric snails, nautiluses and vertebrate remains in the sand, are like markers in Earth's long history.
This is the music of the Grand Canyon. This is the sound of rock. It is the music of trees and plants, a symphony of vivid memories in the Grand Canyon.
It tells us how the creek passes through the red rocks in the canyon, and how the river passes through the splashing waterfalls and rolls down into the turquoise-clear reefs. Through this music, you can seem to see a red-tailed hawk gliding across the sky, and then with the roar of the Colorado River, nature uses its brush to outline bright reds, dim purples, delicate pinks, bright tender colors and Flashing gold.
But like all natural parks, the Grand Canyon is being damaged. Its underlying structure is crumbling, and that demands attention.
By 1954, the park received 50 million visitors a year. Now, 40 years later, it is estimated that it will receive 270 million tourists in the next 15 years. Many natural parks, including the Grand Canyon, see almost 25% more visitors each year. Nearly 5 million tourists visited Grand Canyon National Park last year.
While people try their best to protect national parks, they are still plagued by air pollution, overcrowding, crime, industrial waste, and a lack of funding. These things are eating away at our beautiful natural scenery. Now, we should realize the precious wealth that nature has given us, and we should realize the significance of protecting nature to us. The importance of nature to us is not only the beautiful scenery, but also provides us with all the knowledge about human beings.
This is why New Age musicians created this series. Each album tells a story about our planet. They hope that through their music, people can see the sacred and solemn natural scenery and make people realize the significance of protecting nature, so that the legacy left by nature can continue to be preserved in our generation.
Clear mountain springs, meadows dotted with spring wildflowers, and the echo of leaping waterfalls through desolate canyons are our most precious heritage. It exists in the memory of each of us. When you listen to the music of the New Age, you should think of these glorious scenery, because when we integrate into nature, we will be close to our true selves.
For hundreds of millions of years, the roaring Colorado River has cut this shocking miracle, the Grand Canyon, from the Campaboo Plateau in northern Arizona in the western United States. You can clearly see it as long as you climb up and look far away. I saw a big crack on the tabletop plateau, which was the imprint of the Colorado River on this wild land.
Since John Wesley Powell rafted the Grand Canyon for the first time in 1869, countless American explorers have followed his footsteps over the past 100 years, challenging dangerous shoals and fighting rapids in the Grand Canyon. Here is the interpretation With a spirit of the United States of America. The Grand Canyon in the United States of America is one of the largest canyons in the world and one of the seven wonders of nature on earth. Many people who have visited this place lament that only the famous Grand Canyon is A true symbol of the United States of America!
The Grand Canyon is 347 kilometers long, 6 to 29 kilometers wide, and 1,600 meters deep. Located on the Kaibab Plateau in northern Arizona in the western United States of America, it was discovered in 1869 by an expedition team led by John Wesley Powell, a major of the one-armed artillery of the United States of America. In 1919, President Wilson approved it as a national park with a total area of ??1,100 square kilometers. Grand Canyon National Park was added to the World Heritage List in 1980.
Contains the classic and numerous national parks of the Southwest of the United States of America, giant meteorite impact craters, confusing canyons, large step-shaped colorful faults, petrified wood clusters, and hidden Indian cliffs. Dwelling in the ruins, the mysterious outer world.
“No matter how many roads you have traveled, no matter how many famous mountains and rivers you have seen, the color tone of this Colorado Grand Canyon is so novel and the structure is so majestic, as if it can only exist in another world, another planet. "This is a pertinent description of the Grand Canyon by the early American naturalist and explorer John Muir after visiting the Grand Canyon in 1890.
After visiting the Grand Canyon in 1920, the composer Groffy, known as the "musical landscape painter" of the United States of America, aroused a strong desire to create. After that, he spent nearly ten years visiting and experiencing the Grand Canyon many times. He used his distinctive musical image to describe the majesty, grandeur and ever-changing beauty of the Grand Canyon, and created the "Grand Canyon" symphonic suite, which is known as "A travelogue written in musical notes."
When I first saw the Grand Canyon, I felt the shock and surprise I had never experienced before. I lament that while modern civilization continues to conquer nature, it still leaves behind such magnificent primitive wilderness. It is very difficult to describe the Grand Canyon. It is difficult to express the scenery of the Grand Canyon in words. You can only experience the solemnity, tranquility and depth of the Grand Canyon with your heart after visiting it in person, and appreciate the rapid changes and billions of things that the Creator has given to the Grand Canyon. Years of loneliness.
The Grand Canyon is located in the interior of North America, running between Arizona and Utah.
The climate here is dry, the territory is vast, and there are strange rocks, red soil, canyons and Indian customs. In Western movies of the United States of America, those lone heroes or cowboy heroes who robbed the rich, gave to the poor, and supported justice a hundred years ago were often depicted. They rode horses and carried guns, riding through the barren red soil canyons, crossing the turbulent Colorado River, and the setting sun. Most of the picturesque shots of boundless and vast roads were taken here. The four southwestern states of the western United States of America—Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico—have naturally become ideal places for tourists to experience the life of Western cowboys.
In the cinema of Grand Canyon National Park, there is the world's largest screen, which interprets the history and changes of the Grand Canyon. Hundreds of millions of years ago, like the Himalayas, this place was once a vast ocean, and the orogeny caused it to rise. However, due to the softness of the stone, after millions of years of erosion by the rapid Colorado River, the rock walls on both sides were cut by friction to form the world-famous Grand Canyon that today is nearly 400 kilometers long, about 20 kilometers wide, and has an average depth of 1,500 meters.
Looking down at the canyon now, the Colorado River is quietly like a green ribbon, embedded in the bottom of the valley, winding and sparkling. It's hard to imagine that such a "little river" once carried millions of tons of sediment and roared down in 2.6 million years, rushing from southwest Colorado to Utah's Glen Canyon, and finally reached the mirror-like calm. Lake Powell created the primitive, wild, vast, deep, magnificent and magical Grand Canyon in Arizona that we see today. Just as the contemporary American writer Frank Waters commented on the Grand Canyon: "This is the gathering point of all aspects of nature. It is the smile and fear of nature at the same time. In its heart, it is full of life and the universe. The wild anger of the reins is also filled with the purity after the anger subsides. This is creation. "The Grand Canyon creates beauty, creates a state, a kind of emotion and thoughts that are unforgettable."
Over tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years, the rapids of the Colorado River carved out a huge horizontal groove on a plateau and gave it a bizarre shape. The valley walls on both sides are ladder-like, made up of overlapping rocks representing different geological ages, like hundreds of millions of books stacked on top of each other to form unpredictable, colorful and colorful patterns.
Both sides of the Grand Canyon are covered with huge red rock faults. Nature has used uncanny creativity to carve out rugged rock formations and mountains, sandwiching a huge and bottomless valley, showing incomparable vigor and magnificence. . What's even more peculiar is that although the soil here is mostly brown, when it is bathed in sunlight, depending on the intensity of the sun's rays, the color of the rocks will sometimes be dark blue, sometimes brown, and sometimes again. It is red, always confusing and ever-changing, highlighting the beauty and mystery of nature. At this time, the Grand Canyon is as colorful, vast and psychedelic as a fairyland, and the charming scenery is unforgettable. The color and structure of the canyon, especially its majestic charm, cannot be imitated by any sculptor or painter.
