Gustav Holst was one of England's premier composers, and among his works
are the orchestral suite,
The Planets
, a large number of choral works, 8
operas, and over 40 songs.
Holst was a trombonist, and his association with that instrument gave birth to
his band works. The
First Suite in E-flat
was composed in 1909, and the
Suite in F
appeared two years later. Together with
Hammersmith
, composed in 1930, this trio of
works has an almost unique distinction; they are works originally written for band and later arranged for
orchestra. Another band work,
Moorside Suite
, was written in 1929 as a test piece for the Crystal
Palace Brass Band Championships.
First Suite in Eb for Military Band
(suite) was composed in 1909 and was first published in 1917 in
the Boosey Journal. This publication is copyright 1921 by Boosey & Company. The
First Suite in E-flat
is one of the most frequently performed original works for band.
