3:05 - 4:53 I first heard this particular part of the song in one of the Bluey episodes. It was so emotional for me to hear the melody for the first time and I love it dearly!
This is great! My school's symphony orchestra played this piece and their semi-annual concert, and this same orchestra visited my school to coach our orchestra. I just HAD to hear them for myself. Just fantastic!
The LSO is the ONLY orchestra and Sir Colin Davis is the ONLY conductor that evers does justice to The Planets (especially Jupiter). What a masterpiece!!!
Charles Villiers Stanford Thank you for letting me know. I will have to take your word for it because I have no idea what Colin Davis's version sounds like. But I wasn't only commenting on this very recording here and nothing else. ✌
Whoa, the first trumpet played that whole phrase up the octave. That's not written in the score. Sounds wicked, though. Holst probably didn't put it in the score like that because he didn't expect trumpet players to be able to play musically while up that high.
LOL, I know... About 2 months ago I was there with family and standing in line at "Soaring Over California" I heard it (Jupiter)... Mind you I had a few drinks in me (one reason why I love California Adventure Land") I was commenting on ever movement of the piece... Needless to say many people near me in line probably thought that I was a babbling drunkard.
Undoubtedly the most professional and orchestral rendition of Holst. Unfortunately there is no other orchestra in the world with the ability to perform to this standard. Sir C. Davis is undoubtedly qualified to conduct such a masterpiece, but without such talented musicians, his expertise withers. Thank You mrmortgage for this inclusion. My apologies to that Japanese orchestra, but they are, in all honesty, rubbish. It's like a star trek intro with them..
dude, thats the most ignorant thing ive heard in a good while. U gota hav a wide appreciate all music to be a music fan. its all different, but the basis of its all the same, well suppose to atleast. Envoke emotion, wheather it be Holst, J Dilla or Travis Barker, u take somethin away with ya
