His reputation in England rests largely on his [[song]]s and on his [[light music]] for [[orchestra]], such as his ''Children's Overture'', with its interwoven [[nursery rhyme]] tunes, and a suite of music for the play ''[[Where the Rainbow Ends]]''. He is noted as an influence on several English composers, including [[Peter Warlock]].<ref>{{cite web|title =Grove Music Online Quilter, Roger|url= http://www.grovemusic.com/shared/views/article.html?from=search&session_search_id=812525949&hitnum=1&section=music.22702&authstatuscode=200|publisher=Grove Music Online ed.

Quilter enjoyed a fruitful collaboration with the tenor [[Gervase Elwes]] until the latter's death in 1921. In November 1936, Quilter's opera ''Julia'' was presented at Covent Garden by the British Music Drama Opera Company under the direction of [[Vladimir Rosing]].

Morì nella sua casa di [[St John's Wood (Westminster)|St John's Wood]], a [[Londra]], pochi mesi dopo le celebrazioni per festeggiare il suo 75º compleanno e fu sepolto nella tomba di famiglia della St Mary's Church, Bawdsey, [[Suffolk]].<ref name="Hold" />

Il corpo delle canzoni di Roger Quilter, oltre cento in totale, si è aggiunto alle canzoni d'arte inglese canoniche che sono cantate ancora oggi. Tra le più popolari ci sono ''Love's Philosophy'', ''Fair House of Joy'', ''Come Away Death'', ''Go, Lovely Rose'', ''Weep You No More'', ''By the Sea'' e il suo [[arrangiamento]] di ''O Mistress Mine''. L'adattamento di Quilter dei versi del poema di [[Alfred Tennyson|Tennyson]] ''Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal'' è una delle sue prime canzoni, ma è comunque caratteristica del successivo stile maturo.

Pubblicò anche l'''Arnold Book of Old Songs'', una raccolta di 16 canzoni popolari e tradizionali con nuovi accompagnamenti, dedicata a suo nipote Arnold Guy Vivian.

==Songs==

Roger Quilter's output of songs, more than one hundred in total, added to the canon of [[Classical music of the United Kingdom|English]] [[art song]] that is still sung today. Among the most popular are "Love's Philosophy", "Fair House of Joy", "Come Away Death", "Go, Lovely Rose", "Weep You No More", "By the Sea", and his setting of "[[Feste#O Mistress Mine|O Mistress Mine]]". Quilter's setting of verses from the Tennyson poem "[[Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal]]" is one of his earliest songs but is nonetheless characteristic of the later, mature style.

==Opere scelte==
