Description

This suite for chamber orchestra features six movements, each evoking a distinct Baroque and Classical style. From a 'Bach-like Aria' to a 'Richard Rodgers-style Waltz', the work showcases Rutter's mastery of orchestral composition.

The instrumentation is reminiscent of Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No.5, with a focus on forward-driving rhythms and beautiful melodic lines. The final Rondeau stands out for its characteristically strong rhythmic pulse and elegant melodies.
