In 1905, he began a career as a gifted teacher when he was appointed Director of Music at St. Paul's Girls School in Hammersmith. It was also a time when he developed the friendship of Ralph Vaughan Williams and the two developed an interest in English folk music. This became a turning point in Holst's style as he left behind the heaviness of the Wagnerian style for the simplicity of folk melodies. Vaughan Williams wrote 'we were dazzled, we wanted to preach a new gospel, we wanted to rhapsodise on these tunes just as Liszt and Grieg had done on theirs - we simply were fascinated by the tunes. ' Enthusiastic archivist Cecil Sharp, of the Folk Song Society, encouraged Holst to write 'Two Selections of Folk Songs' based on material Sharp had collected in the West of England. Songs of the West was the first of the pair noted as Opus 22 was written in 1906. A Somerset Rhapsody was completed the following year. The melodies in Songs of the West differ in styles, keys, and tempos. The nautical nature of the coastal region is evident in many of the melodies. Originally written for orchestra, noted composer James Curnow was commissioned in 1986 to arrange the work for concert band.

Les melodies de cançons d'Occident difereixen en estils, claus i tempos. La naturalesa nàutica de la regió costanera és evident en moltes de les melodies. Gustav Holst no va tenir molt èxit en aconseguir les seves primeres composicions publicades. El 1905, va començar una carrera com a professor dotat, quan va ser nomenat director de música a l'escola de St Paul Noies al Hammersmith. Va ser també un moment en què ell va desenvolupar l'amistat de Ralph Vaughan Williams i els dos van desenvolupar un interès en la música folk Anglès. Això es va convertir en un punt d'inflexió en l'estil de Holst quan sortia de darrere de la pesadesa de l'estil wagnerià per la simplicitat de les melodies populars. Vaughan Williams va escriure "estàvem enlluernats, volíem a predicar un nou evangeli, volíem rhapsodise sobre aquests temes igual que Liszt i Grieg havien fet al seu - simplement quedem fascinats per les melodies. 'Arxiver Entusiasta Cecil Sharp de la Societat Folk Song, va animar Holst per escriure' Dos seleccions de Folk Songs 'basats en el material de Sharp s'havia acumulat a l'oest d'Anglaterra.
