Description
Originally written as part of the Commissioned Works for School Bands sponsored by Carl Fischer on the occasion of the one hundredth anniversary of the firm Ginger Marmalade has become one of the best known of serious twentieth-century works for school band. A humorous program number that plays with the listener’s expectations, it is technically simple, but uses unusual sound resources (clapping hands, rapping heels, novel percussion sounds) o produce a work that delights the ear and challenges the mind. Often cited as a cornerstone of the young band repertoire (it is on both the UIL – Texas and NYSSMA required music lists) we are pleased to issue this delightful piece as part of our Carl Fischer Classic Band Edition.
