Last week we watched & heard The Holtz Planet Suite with full
Orchestra ~ AWESOME ! I have chosen URANUS to illustrate !
Holtz wrote the Suite in London (1914 - 16) during WW1 which
explains why they are somewhat melancholy ! He stated that his
inspiration came from Astrology & Horoscopes and not Astronomy !
The Pieces do not have any connection with the Deities of
Classical Mythology ! Planet Earth is not included in the Suite !
