'The Planets' by English composer Gustav Holst is a seven-movement orchestral suite in which each movement is named after a planet of the Solar System and its corresponding astrological character. The orchestration is very imaginative and colourful, showing the influence of contemporary composers (Stravinsky and Schoenberg), as well as late Russian romantics (Rimsky-Korsakov and Glazunov). From its premiere to the present day, the suite has been enduringly popular.
