Before the days of photography, the great state occasions were captured in paintings and tapestries. In this Suite, the composer has imagined the pomp and splendor of the English court at work and play, capturing each mood in a short movement.

Stuart Johnson has the fine ability to capture moods and scenes in music. He was born in Staffordshire, the county for which he was Director of Music until his retirement in 1997. After experience as a player in brass bands, he served in the band of the King's Dragoon Guards before training as a teacher and working in schools. Following a period as a lecturer at Northumberland College of Education he became Music Adviser to the Metropolitan District of Sandwell prior to his appointment to Staffordshire. He has long experience as a conductor, particularly in the choral and band fields and also wide experience as an adjudicator and examiner. He has written prolifically for bands and orchestras and his didactic publications are used in many countries. He has over eighty published compositions and arrangements, many of which have been broadcast on radio or television. His commissioned works include the cantata David and Goliath which was first performed at the Royal Festival Hall, Oregon Overture for wind orchestra, Landscapes, Sinfonietta No 2, Wessex Dances and A Castle Suite. Stuart Johnson has recently completed several commissions, funded by National Lottery grants, for bands in Cumbria, the Isle of Wight, and Staffordshire. Requiem for Soprano, Chorus and Orchestra, was premiered successfully in front of a capacity audience in Lichfield Cathedral in March 1997, and received its first London performance at St. John's Smith Square in March 1998. This prestigious venue also saw the first performance of Songs and Sonnets for unaccompanied mixed choir in 2001.

According to his teachers, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893), was not particularly gifted. His special talents were acknowledged only in 1865 when he had been working for the Ministry of Finances for some years.
In 1866 he was appointed teacher at the Conservatory and applied himself to composing. His oeuvre is fairly extensive and many of his compositions receive a high ranking on the international list of classical music, including his six symphonies, solo concertos (violin concerto and piano concertos), ballets (The Nut Cracker, Swan Lake), and his overtures (1812 and Romeo and Juliette).
In 1893 Tchaikovsky died of Cholera after drinking a glass of infectedwater.

His Slavonic March is a popular concert piece for symphonic orchestra that is still frequently performed in concert halls.
David Well arranged the theme and created a contemporary march in rock style.

Tchaikovsky once said to an unsatisfied teacher: ‘I will be a great composer within 10 years time.’

Volgens zijn leraren was Pjotr Iljitsj Tsjaikovski (1840-1893) niet bijzonder begaafd. Zijn speciale talenten werden alleen erkend in 1865, toen hij enkele jaren had gewerkt voor het ministerie van Financiën.
In 1866 werd hijbenoemd tot docent aan het Conservatorium en legde zich toe op het componeren. Zijn oeuvre is vrij uitgebreid en veel van zijn composities krijgen een hoge ranking op de internationale lijst van klassieke muziek, met inbegrip vanzijn zes symfonieën, soloconcerten (viool en piano), balletten (De Notenkraker, Het Zwanenmeer), en zijn ouvertures (1812 en Romeo en Juliette).
In 1893 is Tsjaikovski gestorven aan cholera na het drinken van een glas van besmetwater.

Zijn Slavische Mars is een populair concertwerk voor symfonie orkest.
David Well maakte een mooi arrangement van het thema en creëerde een mars in een hedendaagse rock stijl.

Tchaikovsky zei ooittegen een ontevreden leraar: 'Ik zal een groot componist zijn binnen 10 jaar tijd'.
