Journey through the solar system with Holst’s imaginative musical depiction of the planets, past mighty Mars and glorious Jupiter.
In the first half, we're down on earth. Finnish conductor Sakari Oramo transports us to the Nordics with Sibelius’s depiction of forest creature The Wood Nymph, and Lara Poe’s brand new work Songs from the Countryside, featuring soprano Anu Komsi.
Students from the Royal College of Music Chamber Choir, Royal College of Music Symphony Orchestra and the Sibelius Academy Symphony Orchestra come together for this powerful programme.
Presented by Clive Myrie with special guest, space scientist Maggie Aderin-Pocock.
