The Hills Shire Symphony Orchestra is proud to present 'The Planets, Op. 32' - a seven-movement orchestral suite by the English composer Gustav Holst. It is sure to be an evening that is out of this world!

​

Holst's 'Planet's suite is beloved in Western classical repertoire. Featuring an exciting new arrangement from HSSO's very own conductor, Chris Upton, Sergei Rachmaninoff's Prelude in C-Sharp Minor, and Pyotr Tchaikovsky's Capriccio Italien, the HSSO aims to present these incredible works in a new light and showcase a range of emotions and brilliant orchestration.

 

Guests are encouraged to arrive from 7 pm, where there will be an exhibition of Planets-inspired artwork from two local artists available for purchase. There will also be a 15-minute intermission between the two halves of the concert, where these artworks will be sold and supper will be served.
