Holst: The Planets / Matthews: Pluto

Search: Holst - The Planets: Mars
from: Hyperion

Release Date June 18, 2001
I can't give this less than five stars for all the brilliance here. It's a great performance of Holst's well-known masterpiece The Planets, and a beautiful little-known one, the Lyric Movement. I have as yet, however, despite many listenings and keen inclination to hear what it's saying, not enjoyed/understood Colin Matthews' `addition' to Holst's planet suite - Pluto. To my ears and feelings Matthews' work is simply from a different palate. Notably perhaps, whilst Holst was somewhat taken with astrological connections, Matthews has downplayed this - oddly, as Holst's interest was known to be both whimsical and, after its own manner, serious. Significantly, Holst was uninclined to add to his Planets suite when in 1930 Pluto was discovered, and is known ... Read More:

The Sven-Göran Eriksson Classical Collection

Search: Holst - The Planets: Mars
by: Various Composers

Release Date April 08, 2002
What I know about classical music could be written on the back of a stamp. The only thing I do know is what I like and what I don’t like. So for a beginner with no idea where to start I bought the Sven Goran Eriksson Classical Collection. Mainly I bought it because it had such a variety of composers and also had a few tracks that I knew I liked. Any misgivings I had about this cd were quickly quashed. This is an absolutely fantastic collection of music. It’s relaxing, chilled out and just what you need on the drive home from work. Whatever you think of Sven…..he’s got some great taste in music. Thanks to Sven I’ve been able to sample the works of some of the greatest composers and I now have more of an idea of where to ... Read More:
