Saturday, March 9, 2024    THE PLANETS

with Percussiano 3 (Bergmann Duo, pianos and Rod Thomas Squance, percussion)

Gustav Holst’s sonic, celestial masterpiece The Planets; depicting Mars, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune and the corresponding astrological characters, will be the featured work of this concert. Holst’s two-piano version along with Percussiano 3’s addition of percussion is a tour de force, and will be accompanied by dazzling visuals projected onto screen. Percussiano 3 will round out the programme with some of their other own arrangements of works by composers such as Bach, Chabrier and Bernstein.
