Between 1905 and 1934, Gustav Holst worked as music director at St. Paul's Girls' School in London. When a soundproof study was set up for him there, he wrote his Suite in C as a thank you, later renamed the St. Paul's Suite. It begins with a lively jig, followed by a cheerful, light-hearted ostinato movement. In the third movement there is a sudden change in character to a gloomy, melancholic gesture, until the suite returns to a light-hearted and light-hearted character in the fourth movement with the processing of two English folk songs.
