The English Suites are an early set of six suites written for harpsichord around 1718-1720. The name English has come from a claim that these works may have been composed for an English nobleman.

This very imaginative arrangement for Trombone Quartet by Mr. Burgstahler is appropriate for advanced performers and is in eight movements:

Prelude, Allemande, Courante, Sarabande, Sarabande embellished (added by the arranger), Gavotte I, Gavotte II and Gigue.

This arrangement can be played in its entirety or even just a few of the movements, still with much satisfaction for the performers.

The brief sound sample is from the Prelude movement and very nicely performed by Mr. Burgstahler and members of the quartet "7th Position".
