This delightful Grainger fanfare, entitled The Duke of Marlborough was originally written in March of 1939. The English folk tune is based on a melody sung by Mr. Henry Burstow and is also utilized as a countermelody in the first movement of Lincolnshire Posey. This Hunsberger edition, a warm addition to the Donald Hunsberger Wind Library, is faithful to Grainger's intent and clarifies many intricacies. It offers a variety of performance opportunities serving as either an augmented brass ensemble fanfare or as one portion in a collage of shorter Grainger selections.
