Holst’s Planets was produced by John Culshaw, who joined Decca in the late 1940s and became its leading classical producer during the 1950s and 60s. Trained as a writer and critic before moving into studio work, brought a sense of structure and narrative to orchestral recording that was new at the time.

Not a bad place to warm up for Holst's The Planets.🪐 Associate Principal Trombonist Chris Oliver stopped by "Expanding Universe Hall" at the Perot Museum of Nature & Science to perform this famous excerpt from “Mars.” We’d say this is the kind of energy Holst had in mind when writing this movement! Hear the full suite with the DSO at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center January 22–24. Tickets available at: dallassymphony.org/holsts-the-planets. | Dallas Symphony Orchestra
