The Planets: Op. 32: Full Orchestra Miniature Score

From the ominous, relentless march of "Mars, Bringer of War" to the ethereal high-string sonorities of "Venus, the Bringer of Peace," this spectacular symphonic suite established Gustav Holst's international reputation as one of the most popular and important modern British composers. First performed in 1918, it remains a staple of the orchestral repertoire. [6 1/8 x 8 1/2, 192 pp.]
