As with all of our offerings this project takes the road less traveled, eschewing generic space footage in favor of a vibrantly creative approach informed by the musical and cultural history of Holst’s magnum opus. Drawing on the astrological themes which inspired the composer, each of Gary Kelley’s seven visual settings explores a different aspect of the First World War and its aftermath.

The Planets Reimagined is our most ambitious project in terms of length and scope, and as such benefits greatly from our sophisticated cueing system. Musicians and audiences alike can focus on the all-encompassing experience of this epic work while video elements flow seamlessly alongside the performance.

This presentation requires full orchestra or symphonic band in a large concert hall. We can assist ensembles in establishing the best instrumentation for their individual performance, offering advice on performing either the full version or Holst’s reduced scoring. Artist Gary Kelley is available for appearances related to this presentation.

One critic called The Planets Reimagined “a powerful philosophical journey of music and metaphysics.” Now your organization can take artists and audiences on this amazing odyssey of sound and story!
