This suite was written and intended as a homage and stepping stone to the great band works of Holst, Grainger & Vaughan Williams. The three movements are based on traditional English folk tunes which include settings of sea songs, a ballad, and variations on an old whimsical children's song. Written somewhat in the style of the above-mentioned masters, this suite is accessible to younger bands yet appropriate for more advanced ensembles. Destined to be a band classic!
