Small Town

这是斯库尔索普演奏次数最多的作品之一，灵感来自 D-H-劳伦斯的小说《袋鼠》中的一段话，他在其中描述了新南威尔士州的 Thirroul 镇。 在作品的核心部分，两支小号在低沉的弦乐中演奏出萦绕心头的卡农曲调 "最后的岗哨"。 小镇》经常被用来为公民场合、澳新军团日游行和国家葬礼的广播伴奏。 它也是管弦乐队教育计划的最爱"

原文简介:
One of Sculthorpe’s most performed works, it was inspired by a passage from D H Lawrence’s novel, “Kangaroo”, in which he describes the town of Thirroul in New South Wales. At the heart of the work, two trumpets play “The Last Post” in haunting canon over hushed strings. Small Town is often used to accompany broadcasts of civic occasions, Anzac Day processions and at state funerals. It is also a firm favourite with orchestra education programmes.
