The suite "The Planets" unleashes a colorful orchestral universe.
This CD release from 1987 brought Holst's masterpiece back to life in crystal clear sound quality, a rare achievement. The concept of portraying the character of each planet through music was the result of pushing the limits of orchestral music. From the warlike power of "Mars" to the mystical serenity of "Neptune," the orchestra's diverse expressive power is fully displayed. This excellent recording allows you to fully enjoy the charm of this work, a monumental work of 20th-century orchestral music that continues to captivate audiences to this day.
