Susskind / St Louis Symphony - Holst: The Planets


The St Louis Symphony again, this time under the baton of Walter Susskind. Holst's seven-movement orchestral suite The Planets - particularly the Mars and Jupiter movements - have been the inspiration for a number of rock tracks and synthesiser-based interpretations.

The SACD release featured the original quadraphonic mix with a silent centre channel as required by the SACD format that I deleted from my conversion.
