THE PLANETS (Suite for Large Orchestra, Op. 32)
Arranged for Organ Solo by Jonathan Scott.

I. MARS (The Bringer of War)
II. VENUS (The Bringer of Peace)
III. MERCURY (The Winged Messenger)
IV. JUPITER (The Bringer of Jollity)
V. SATURN (The Bringer of Old Age)
VI. URANUS (The Magician)
VII. NEPTUNE (The Mystic)

The Planets was premiered during the last weeks of World War I at the Queen's Hall, London, and became the most famous piece of music about planets, space, and the cosmos. It also became a great influence for many famous orchestral film soundtracks. Each movement has wonderful qualities, from the driving energy of Mars, to the beautiful harmony of Venus, but probably the most famous movement is Jupiter, with its wonderful melody, known as the Hymn tune “I vow to thee my country” (Thaxted).

This is the first recording of the brand new Martin Scholz pipe organ of St Lambertus, Erkelenz, Germany. This impressive large 4 manual instrument has a wonderful sound, and even has tubular bells, which Jonathan will use to full effect in Saturn.

Tom has filmed many views and details of the beautiful church which, with its wonderful architectural lines and many abstract window/floor designs, really complements this celestial musical journey.

We hope that you enjoy this unique and epic sonic and visual experience.
