Holst- The Planets Op 32, Paganini- Introduction & Variations (LSO & Chorus, Gary Karr, Geoffrey Simon) [1991]

Gustav Holst's "The Planets" is a brilliant portrayal of the other celestial bodies outside of Earth (except for Pluto because it wasn't discovered back when Holst composed this). Mars is violent and in a military march form. Parts of it have the brassy dominating sound resembling that of Darth Vader's theme. Venus sounds like something out of a black-and-white romantic movie, high lush strings, celesta, french horn and all, a personal favorite. Mercury is a very playful sounding piece, strong emphasis on the woodwinds and strings. Jupiter is definately my favorite. It has a very happy theme and moves me on every listening. One of its themes sounds like the score Chariots Of Fire. Saturn sounds slow, repetitive, and sluggish (no insult). This might make you fall asleep so be forewarned. Uranus sounds like a crazy circus, not like a magician as it is titled. Neptune is definately very mysterious and vague, another personal favorite out of all the other great tracks. The Paganini piece is in this recording for some strange reason but sounds good on its own, a little weird with the double bass, if I might add. The LSO's performance is all I called ask for and definately lives up to its reputation. ..
