Between 1905 and 1934, Gustav Holst was Director of Music at St Paul’s Girls School in Brook Green, London. St Paul’s Suite, written for the school’s string orchestra, was premiered there in 1913 and consists of four movements: an energetic Jig in 6/8 and 9/8, Ostinato, based on a simple 4-note theme, Intermezzo, an energetic and rhythmic dance and Finale, adapted from the Second Suite in F in which Holst brilliantly combines The Dargason and The English Dancing Master, with the traditional melody, Greensleeves.

St. Paul’s Suite, geschreven voor het strijkorkest van de school, werd in 1913 in première gebracht. Het werk bestaat uit vier delen: een energieke Jig in 6/8 en 9/8; een Ostinato, gebaseerd op en simpel motief van vier noten; een levendig, ritmische dans in het Intermezzo; en de Finale, een bewerking van de Second Suite in F, waarin Holst op briljante wijze The Dargason uit The English Dancing Master combineert met de traditionele melodie Greensleeves.

A lilting waltz with a modern twist, taken from the composer’s JazzSuite No.2.

Der durch den Geiger André Rieu bekannt gewordene Walzer in einer Bearbeitung für variables Bläserquintett.

En 1938, Dimitri Chostakovitch compose la Suite pour Orchestre de Jazz n° 2. Cette suite témoigne de l’éclat et de l’esprit qui marquent l’orchestration de Chostakovitch, mais la musique ne correspond guère l’idée que l’on se fait communément du jazz. Le compositeur recourt plutôt un style qui s’apparente la musique légère. La Suite n° 2 est enracinée dans la Vienne de Johann Strauss comme en témoigne la Valse n° 2.

La trascrizione del celebre Waltz tratto dalla Jazz suite n.2 di Dimitri Schostakovich, entrata nell’immaginario collettivo anche grazie al film di Kubrik Arancia meccanica.

After Henrik Ibsen obtained sensational feedback for his verse drama Peer Gynt, he decided to arrange the text for stage performances as well. He requested incidental music from Edvard Grieg, who immediately assured Ibsen of his cooperation. In its new version, Peer Gynt was given its first performance in February 1876 and also scored a tremendous success. After a further revision of his music, Grieg compiled four of the most striking pieces into an orchestral suite in 1888, and repeated this procedure three years later for a second suite. The publication of the first complete score further boosted the already exceptional acclaim of the incidental music to Grieg's Peer Gynt, which takes its place today among the composer's most beloved works.Breitkopf is now releasing a new conductor's score to both suites, based on the proven edition of Richard Clarke, which is already accessible as a study score in the Eulenburg series.

These TWO SUITES were composed in response to a request form Heini Schneebeli, the musical director of 'TROMBONANZA 2017'. Santa Fe in Argentina is the backdrop for this exciting annual event involving many hundreds of student and professional players.

The SECOND SUITE has five movements and is intended for a quartet of younger tenor trombonists working with a teacher on the fifth part on bass trombone who will add richness and depth to the ensemble sound.

It is my hope that this piece will encourage, entertain and challenge student players and provide useful concert material for use in the promotion of this unique and versatile instrument.
John Frith - 2017
