Gustav Holst’s The Planets

Gustav Holst’s The Planets has inspired an abundance of film music, not least John Williams’s soundtrack to the Star Wars films. The Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and their principal conductor Daniel Harding will interpret this stunning and evocative orchestral work, which continues to fascinate the public more than 100 years after its composition. Plus Alban Berg’s poignant song cycle Seven Early Songs with soprano Johanna Wallroth, who has been named Classical Artist of the Year by the radio station P2.
