The Gum Suckers March for Concert Band 進行曲 室內管樂團

來自 Grainger："吸膠人 "是對來自作曲家家鄉維多利亞州的澳大利亞人的昵稱。"在炎炎夏日，吸吮'桉樹'（桉樹）的葉子非常清爽"。這首樂曲是作曲家 "果殼 "管弦樂組曲的第四樂章，作曲家親自為樂隊編排了這首樂曲，正如他為自己的許多管弦樂作品所做的那樣。 然而，由於現代的一些轉調方法和缺乏完整的樂譜，原版中出現了許多錯誤。 本版本經過精心製作，從所有可用資源和檔案中提取素材，以確定作曲家的原意。 除了更正之外，這一版本還更新了配器，以反映當前的樂隊情況，並為那些沒有全套配器的樂隊提供了豐富的交叉提示，而這些樂隊正是格蘭傑慣常寫作的物件"

原文簡介:
From Grainger: “Gum-suckers” is a nick-name for Australians hailing from the state of Victoria, the home state of the composer. “The leaves of the 'gum' (Eucalyptus) trees are very refreshing to suck in the parching summer weather.” The 4th movement of his “In a Nutshell” suite for orchestra, the composer himself arranged this piece for band, as he did for much of his orchestral music. However, due to some contemporary methods of transposing and the lack of a full score, that original version contains numerous errors. This edition was carefully crafted, pulling from all available resources and archives to determine the composer's original intent. In addition to corrections, this edition updates the instrumentation to reflect current bands and offers generous cross-cueing for those bands without the full instrumentation for which Grainger customarily wrote.
