Is there the motive of "of Science and Learning" of "Alzo sprach Zarathustra" used at about 4:10-? Did Holst respected R.strauss or "Zarathustra?" I couldn't catch any information on the web. Anyone who know something, please tell me! :)

I composed a piece for piano about half a year ago that sounds SO similar to this, only most of it was in 9/8. Then I discovered a month ago that this existed. ARGH! Not only did Holst write this decades before I was born, he did it 100 times better!! Oh well. Now we've got Hammersmith - it's plenty worth it :)

Holst Hammersmith (extract) Frederick Fennellby A60stock3,206 views
THis is a piece which he composed for the British Military Band but unfortunately was far too contemporary for them. They loved the Suites in Eb and F which preseeded this. Although those suites are masterpieces, especially the first in Eb, Hammersmith outshines them. We are priviledged to hear a piece which the composer never actually heard himself, except in his head of course. It was not performed in his lifetime.

Gustav may be gone, but his legacy will endure forever, just so long as humanity does not forget what REAL music is!
