Malachite Casket
Suite for guitar in seven parts

I. The Mistress of Copper Mountain

The sun is setting... On the side of Copper Mountain you can see
the figure of a woman. She looks pensively into the distance with her
malachite-green eyes. She listens to the simple country girls sing songs
and dance the round. She envies them - she can't allow herself the same
pleasure, for she is Mistress of Copper Mountain.
