Description

 DVD rip
This version is by the BBC Symphony under the direction of Andrew Davis.  It is another stunning visualization that accompanies a highly acclaimed performance of Gustav Holst's suite.  In this powerful statement of Holst's vision, three elements are combined: Holst's music, stunning photography of the planets, and eloquent visual images of Holst's own interpretation of the astrological significance of each planet, as revealed in his subtitles:

- MARS, the Bringer of War

- VENUS, the Bringer of Peace

- MERCURY, the Winged Messenger

- JUPITER, the Bringer of Jollity

- SATURN, the Bringer of Old Age

- URANUS, the Magician

- NEPTUNE, the Mystic

The images are masterfully selected to bring each movement to life - Mars with its frightening images - Venus with its beautiful images of life around the world - Jupiter with its images of world cultures, festivals, and dance, etc.

I recently uploaded a similar DVD torrent and avi torrent of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales.  This is a different orchestra, and different images.
