  • Many thanks for bringing this gorgeous performance to YouTube; Sir Ernest MacMillan was a truly great conductor, almost completely forgotten today. He recorded a stellar Handel MESSIAH with Lois Marshall and a young Jon Vickers among the soloists.

  • I'm just a child,and yet,happening upon a peice of music this fine and unique is a rare,but enjoyable experience. Kudos to this particular peice.

  • I love the beginning of this piece.

  • Gustav Holst best Holst

  • I played this at the memorial service for my mother. We listened to this piece a lot when I was a child.

  • According to Live And Be Well book, this was one of the music that was found most effective in slowing an anxious heart (the musical score approximates the rhythm of the resting heart which is seventy beats per min)
