Gustav Theodore Holst (born Gustavus Theodore von Holst; 21 September 1874 – 25 May 1934) was an English composer, arranger and teacher. Best known for his orchestral suite The Planets, he composed a large number of other works across a range of genres, although none achieved comparable success. His distinctive compositional style was the product of many influences, Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss being most crucial early in his development. The subsequent inspiration of the English folksong revival of the early 20th century, and the example of such rising modern composers as Maurice Ravel, led Holst to develop and refine an individual style.
The Planets, Op. 32, is a seven-movement orchestral suite by the English composer Gustav Holst, written between 1914 and 1916. Each movement of the suite is named after a planet of the Solar System and its corresponding astrological character as defined by Holst.
From its premiere to the present day, the suite has been enduringly popular, influential, widely performed and frequently recorded. The work was not heard in a complete public performance, however, until some years after it was completed. Although there were four performances between September 1918 and October 1920, they were all either private (the first performance, in London) or incomplete (two others in London and one in Birmingham). The premiere was at the Queen's Hall on 29 September 1918, conducted by Holst's friend Adrian Boult before an invited audience of about 250 people. The first complete public performance was finally given in London by Albert Coates conducting the London Symphony Orchestra on 15 November 1920.

The Planets (Los planetas) op. 32, es la obra más conocida del compositor inglés Gustav Holst. Es una suite de siete movimientos a cada uno de los cuales Holst le dio el nombre de un planeta (y su correspondiente deidad en la mitología grecorromana). El orden de la obra es el siguiente: 00:00 - Mercurio, el mensajero alado. 03:47 - Venus, el portador de la paz. 11:14 - Marte, el portador de la guerra. 18:40 - Júpiter, el portador de la alegría. 26:16 - Saturno, el portador de la vejez. 35:26 - Urano, el mago. 41:15 - Neptuno, el místico. Fue compuesta entre 1914 y 1918. Está parcialmente inspirada por meditaciones en su propio horóscopo; trata sobre "las siete influencias del destino y componentes de nuestro espíritu".
I’ve got a fever and the only prescription is more Holst! Another cool device from Holst’s Venus, this time it’s contrary motion chords. As per usual I ramble on about different things such as extended chords and transposing etc… Hope you guys/gals like it and get something useful from it:)

- Composer: Alban Maria Johannes Berg (9 February 1885 -- 24 December 1935) - Orchestra: New York Philharmonic - Conductor: Lorin Maazel - Soloist: Anne-Sophie Mutter - Year of recording: 2007 (Live) The Violin Concerto was written in 1935, and is probably Berg’s best-known and most frequently performed instrumental piece. 00:00 – I. a) Andante (Prelude) / b) Allegretto (Scherzo) 11:41 – II. a) Allegro (Cadenza) / b) Adagio (Chorale Variations) The piece stemmed from a commission from the violinist Louis Krasner. When he first received the commission, Berg was working on his opera Lulu, and he did not begin work on the concerto for some months. The event that spurred him into writing was the death by polio of 18-year-old Manon Gropius, the daughter of Alma Mahler (once Gustav Mahler’...
