Description:
The Planets is cast as a single unit, consisting of seven movements, varying greatly in character, each of which describes a planet or a celestial body. Written in 1995 for organist Jens E. Christenson who later gave the first performance, 'Jupiter' is the fifth title in 'The Planets' a suite of seven pieces for organ. Colossal is Jupiter, the mightiest of the planets, ruler of the Universe. Monumental sounds in heavy, block-like dispositions depict the overwhelming gravity of this giant.
