- The Planets, Op. 32, is a seven-movement orchestral suite by the English composer Gustav Holst, written between 1914 and 1917. In the last movement the orchestra is joined by a wordless female chorus. Each movement of the suite is named after a planet of the Solar System and its supposed astrological character.
0:00 I. Mars, the Bringer of War
8:01 II. Venus, the Bringer of Peace
15:25 III. Mercury, the Winged Messenger
19:09 IV. Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity
27:07 V. Saturn, the Bringer of Old Age
35:26 VI. Uranus, the Magician
41:50 VII. Neptune, the Mystic
The premiere of The Planets was at the Queen's Hall, London, on 29 September 1918, conducted by Holst's friend Adrian Boult before an invited audience of about 250 people. Three concerts at which movements from the suite were played were given in 1919 and early 1920. The first complete performance at a public concert was given at the Queen's Hall on 15 November 1920 by the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Albert Coates.
The innovative nature of Holst's music caused some initial hostility among a minority of critics, but the suite quickly became and has remained popular, influential and widely performed. The composer conducted two recordings of the work, and it has been recorded at least 80 times subsequently by conductors, choirs and orchestras from the UK and internationally.

33:51 Wow. I love how the organ pedal provides that gentle rumble in the 32' register, an octave below the double basses even. It's super soft but super effective, especially at 34:54.
Yes, my favourite section of the suite. And the repeat of the 34:35 cadence at 34:48 is one of the coolest cadences in all of classical music.
You should listen to the organ pedals in the Dutoit/Montreal recording. They're so amazingly captured, you can literally FEEL the rumble.
My favorite organ pedal is probably the one that occurs in Neptune (44:42). The contrast with the spooky celesta arpeggios is really striking.
@@EppurMusic funny you should mention that, because you actually can literally feel the organ in Montreal, it's incredible. I first experienced it during the Mahler 2 finale, it felt like one of those 4D movie seats 😵💫
Now that's a legendary achievement! Amazing work.
Thanks! One of the coming videos will be an even bigger achievement, if I ever get to finish it, since I found the MIDI that I have been looking for years.
Can't wait! @@PianoCzarX
@@PianoCzarXImma guess Mahler haha
@@PianoCzarX, Hey. I made a playlist for you so if you’re interested to do my music ideas later on. th-cam.com/play/PLoka_5ikTYC4ryaEdT9IL4P8AUqIa4BLe.html&si=_I7U6eA4OcB0DVxl
Yes! A whole album in a video,,,
Awesome work! Always impressed by these videos, I can imagine some of the effort required to make this one!
Thanks!
This is such amazing work! Thank you for reigniting my love of The Planets. The ending of Saturn is stunningly beautiful
Venus is just incredible.
Niiiiceeeer workkkkk
Damnit. I got unsubscribed from your channel without my knowledge. Love this set of pieces, great video!
Thanks! Weird if you got unsubscribed..
lol I can't stop but think of many missed oppurtunities the ending could've had, the midi flowing like the star wars intro? doors gradually closing? saturation slowly decreasing?
I ve been wating so long for the whole suite! 😁 nice work!
26:27 YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
ALSO 33:51 !!!!!!!!!!
Wowww, thank you. I love every movement of this
Your work deserve way more recognition…
Thank you very much for this
Spectacular work! This is your greatest work yet!
Yeeeees! I love it!!
Yoowww it's the full planets suite, ur insane for this, keep up the great work pal
What can I say? Simply a great video. Thank you for putting so much effort in creating this. Must've taken a lot of time!
I was not expecting to see the entire planets suite uploaded on here, but man I'm glad it did. Thanks for that
Thanks for uploading this beautiful piece today! You have the best synthesia videos on TH-cam in my opinion!
This is spectacular! This must have taken so much work. This is actually my first time sitting down and listening to this entire piece; it's interesting how this feels like a series of portraits of the gods and their eponymous planets at the same time.
Neptune!
It's been a while since you uploaded a full work this long. I never thought I would see this work on Synthesia, yet here I am. Amazing work as always.
Thank you so much!
Hes back !
OOOOH YEEES!!!
Tremendous upload, keep it up!
Holy shit you did it, awesome job!
This is oddly entertaining. I love it!
As I am thought you was upload the neptune, the MYSTIC holst......... But you did it all Venus mercury jupiter Saturn and Uranus Neptune you completed Holst solar system
brother what
Interesting grammar.
Nice whole Planets video!
Well look who came back! Nice music too!
Some figurations in Mercury remind me of the scherzo from Tchaik 6
Nice!
Neptune is certainly the most dramatic one of the suite…
👏👏👏👏
That's great! Can you make the Mahler 8 finale starting with "Alles vergänliche ist nur ein Gleichnis"? Thank you very much!
This sounds so cinematic! Hmmm!
Excellent and very rich work. Can you compose the concerto for Ravel's left hand? ❤😮😊
Why promote plagiarism?
Uranus and Venus is my Favourite ❤
THIS SUIT ABOUT PLANETS IS COOL 😀
I saw your Eine Kleine Nachtmusik first movement video. Can you do all four movements in one video?
I'm a fishhh - forgot my comment 🐟😭💕
Long live MAO and MIDI🎉
11:32 👌
3:05 best part in my opinion
Handbook of Hollywood composers
Hmm, I've got an idea for the thumbnail:
The Planets has 7 movements, and the word "Planets" has 7 letters, so you can make the color of each letter match the color of each planet
For example: P is Mars=red
L is Venus=yellow-ish brown
Etc
Idk if that'll look nice or not tho
Hah, thanks for the curious idea. I’ll try it out
@@PianoCzarX Cool! Keep me updated!
@@trongdung1306 I tried it, I don’t think I will do it because it looks goofy!
@@PianoCzarX,Agreed. By the way. Would you be interested to do my music ideas for the playlist that I will give to you after this?th-cam.com/play/PLlY4g1mu280V0TksWp22hpE1fIEY7CO43.html
@@PianoCzarX,Speaking of my music ideas, Also, Why does there have to be a choir part for Neptune?
Noo way are you freaking serious??? Damn bro
Mars = war Venus= peace Mercury= winged messenger god Jupiter=Jollity Saturn=old age Uranus=magician Neptune=mysitc
16:30
Jeux of Debussy
I know its a big ask.....how about Respighi's Pines of Rome as your next big project.....
How about the whole Roman Trilogy
if only the entire suite had an actual piano playing in the background
Does Venus give anyone a super mario galaxy vibe?
