From the title page of both the treble and bass clef euphonium parts: ENGLISH SUITE is based upon music from the 16th and 17th centuries. Two of the melodies are identified with specific composers: Rule Britannia was composed by Thomas Arne (1710-1788) and My Lovely Celia by George Munro (1680-1731). The remaining melodies are closely related to folk songs and not attributed to specific composers. In the first and final movements, two songs of similar styles are combined. The remaining three movements are lyric in character, and the solo instrument plays the melody and then a descant as the original melody is played by the piano.
