The Appalachian Symphony Orchestra performs Holst’s monumental masterpiece The Planets, accompanied by stunning planetary imagery assembled by NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. The orchestra will be joined by the Treble Choir (Dr. Priscilla Porterfield, director) for a musical journey through the solar system as Holst utilizes an orchestra of epic proportions and colors to depict the personalities of the Roman gods after which the planets were named, including the martial rhythms of “Mars,” the joyful melodies of “Jupiter,” and the ethereal beauty of “Neptune.”
Admission is FREE and open to the public. No ticket is required.
