Now, do you think I got through an evening of researching items for this little bloggy without being offered up all sorts of renditions - or sections of - The Planets Suite? And do you think I could resist? Tsk... is the moon green cheese.... Anyway, the algorithm threw me an item I think you would all enjoy. BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, with Prof Brian Cox giving narration and a 21st-century perspective on the music. Go on, do yourselves a favour!
Menoizikul; Midweek Musicalisms
Capping off our mini Holst fest, here is the longest of the choices, but also the earliest work, coming a full 15 years before The Planets... it is not as rounded and satisfying as the later work, but is still unmistakably Holst.
Menonday Art Vibe; Meiaow!
Mac1 and I just adored this beauty! Practicalities and cost kept me from being a spontaneous buyer... but I don't think anyone can deny that this is a most attractive and fun sculpture. (I did buy a sculpture... she says, teasing once again...)
