Review by Heather Kenison

The album "The Planets Somerset Rhapsody Brook Green Suite" by Holst, performed by The Toronto Symphony and conducted by Andrew Davis, is a stunning tribute to the composer's most famous works. The album includes two suites, each showcasing Holst's unique style and musical genius.

The first suite, "The Planets," is a well-known masterpiece that brings to life the astrological characteristics of each planet through Holst's complex and intricate compositions. The Toronto Symphony's interpretation of this suite is nothing short of breathtaking, with each piece expertly executed to create a powerful and immersive listening experience.

The second suite, "Somerset Rhapsody" and "Brook Green Suite," are lesser-known works that demonstrate Holst's versatility as a composer. The Toronto Symphony's performance of these suites is equally impressive, with each piece beautifully crafted to showcase the nuances and subtleties of Holst's music.

Throughout the album, Andrew Davis's masterful conducting adds an extra layer of depth and emotion to the already impressive performances. He expertly blends the individual instruments to create a cohesive and harmonious sound that is both powerful and delicate.
