Scored for large orchestral forces and a wordless chorus, this spectacular symphonic suite established Holst's international reputation as one of the most popular and important modern British composers.

Spectacular symphonic suite, scored for large orchestral forces and a wordless chorus, is divided into 7 movements, the music of each embodying the astrological and mystical qualities of a different planet. Remarkable emotional sweep and innovative techniques have made the work a staple of the orchestral repertoire. Only full-size score available.

Holst's popular suite was named for the St. Paul's Girls' School of Hammersmith, London - where he was the music director from 1904 until his death thirty years later. Composed in 1912 as a token of gratitude for the installation of a sound-proof teaching studio, where Holst composed this and nearly all subsequent works. The four movement suite was also premiered at St. Paul's by the school orchestra under Holst's direction in the winter months of 1913. Now available in a newly-engraved, easy-to-read score edited by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr. which is based on the composer's manuscript and first edition score and parts. IMSLP page Wikipedia
