Gustav Holst’s most famous work has inspired generations of sci-fi film composers, including John Williams (“The Imperial March” from Star Wars) and Bill Conti (The Right Stuff). From the ferocity of “Mars, Bringer of War” to the ghostly suspense of “Neptune, the Mystic,” it’s the perfect work for dreaming of galaxies far, far away. Yannick helms your starry adventure, making this journey one you won’t want to miss.
