André Previn /LSO - Holst: The Planets (1974) 24-Bit/96-kHz Vinyl Rip

Recorded in 1973, this is widely considered one of the great Planets. Previn is outstanding here; he's not going after effects, he's making all the pieces fit together.
Early in 1914, Gustav Holst told a friend: "As a rule I only study things that suggest music to me…Recently the character of each planet suggested lots to me". This marked the beginning of the composition of his biggest orchestral work, a suite of seven movements. The first to be sketched was Mars - prophetically, for the First World War began just as he completed it. The order of the composition of the remainder was Venus and Jupiter in the autumn of 1914, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune during 1915 and Mercury in 1916. The orchestration of the complete work was also finished in 1916.
Recorded by EMI at London's Kingsway Hall, 1973, and released as EMI ASD-3002 in 1974, it entered into Harry Pearson's TAS list in "Special Merit". The Angel 45 RPM Sonic-Series was released in the USA in 1979, pressed at Wakefield Manufacturing, Phoenix, and marketed by Capitol for audiophile segment.
