Music by Gustav Holst,
Played by The Philadelphia Orchestra,
Conducted by Eugene Ormandy.
The Planets by Gustav Holst is one of the best-loved twentieth-century pieces by a British composer. Ken Russell has taken a brilliant performance of this work, with Eugene Ormandy conducting The
Philadelphia Orchestra, and illustrated The Planets with passages from a mass of documentary material. Russell’s work in fi lm and television has been dazzling and controversial, though often full of charm and insights. His feature fi lm credits include The Music Lovers, Women in Love, Mahler, The Devils, Savage Messiah, Liztomania, Valentino and Tommy.
In this film from 1983 he presents his visual interpretation of Holst’s music. Written in seven movements, each describes the character of a planet:
Mars - forceful and assertive;
Venus - love of all things beautiful;
Mercury - eloquent;
Jupiter - buoyant and hopeful;
Saturn - enduring;
Uranus - eccentric and unexpected; and
Neptune - subtle and mysterious.
Russell’s view of The Planets is provocative, stimulating, inventive, entertaining and wonderfully watch-able, with “images that are beautiful, frightful and imaginative”. (Daily Mail)
Special Feature: Introduced by Melvyn Bragg. |
