This lovely music was recorded in October 2011 in Ulster. The last time I recorded this orchestra was with Peter Donohoe playing Hamilton Harty piano concerto (which is a fine piece). It was lovely to be back in Ulster with this lovely hall, great orchestra and of course their fab new principal concuctor JoAnn Falletta (with whom it was also nice to work again). This will be a NAXOS release of all Holst pieces and will come out quite soon I think.
Very nice music ... unfamiliar Holst, but highly interesting and certainly a worthwhile discovery. The Ulster performance is mighty fine for a "first run-through," Falletta is a marvelous talent.
