Holst’s Legendary Planets

Show

2 performances

Past event

The OSM invites you on an intergalactic musical voyage with Holst’s The Planets. From the thunderous tuttis of Mars to the enigmatic soundscape of Neptune, Holst contrasts orchestral colours to create a “series of mood pictures.” The Orchestra will perform the Montreal premiere of Blurr is the Colour of my True Love's Eyes by Canadian composer Nicole Lizée, a percussion concerto which evolves in a series of spirals that intertwine over the course of the work.

  • Cheffe d’orchestre Gemma New | Percussion : Colin Currie
  • Chœur de l’OSM Andrew Megill (chef de chœur) | Le poste de chef de chœur est généreusement parrainé par Mme Ann Birks, en mémoire de Barrie Drummond Birks
