Description Thomas Frederick Dunhill (1 February 1877 – 13 March 1946) was a prolific English composer in many genres, though he is best known today for his light music and educational piano works. His compositions include much chamber music, a song cycle, The Wind Among the Reeds, and an operetta, Tantivy Towers, that had a successful London run in 1931. He was also a teacher, examiner and writer on musical subjects. Originally written for string orchestra, this suite shows Dunhill’s interest in earlier music. The eight movements come from various sources, but are all from the Renaissance period. Straightforward but rewarding for all involved.
