Groundhog's Revenge

準備好迎接一場藍草之戰！你以為你已經擺脫了那只討厭的土撥鼠，但它又回來了，並再次撕咬你。這是上弦與下弦的對決，每個人都有機會演奏有趣而激動人心的主題。樂曲使用 G 五聲音階，所有樂器都能輕鬆演奏。使用隨附的主題樂譜學習更具挑戰性的部分，作為齊奏練習，讓每個人都參與其中，最大限度地利用教學時間。儘管所有附帶的主題不會在每個聲部中都出現，但當學生們知道彼此的聲部時，他們會更好地傾聽彼此，最終形成一個更緊密的團體。如果想增加一些亮點，指導者可以加入一些手指滑音，並講述重音模式，以展現地道的藍草風格。請欣賞 Seth Gamba 為弦樂團創作的《土撥鼠的復仇》！(2:55)

原文簡介:
Get ready for a bluegrass battle! You thought you got rid of that pesky groundhog, but he's back and tearin' things up again. It's upper strings against lower strings as everyone gets a turn playing fun and exciting themes. Using the G pentatonic scale, parts are easily approachable for all instruments. Use the included theme sheets to learn the more challenging parts as unison exercises to keep everyone involved and maximize instructional time. Even though all of the included themes don't show up in every part, when students know each other's parts they listen to each other better, coming together as a tighter group in the end. For some added flair, directors can add some finger slides and talk about accent patterns for an authentic bluegrass style. Check out Seth Gamba's Groundhog's Revenge for string orchestra! (2:55)
