"The Planets" is one of the most iconic works based on the Solar System that Holst has written during his time. It's also one of my favorite pieces of orchestral music in general. In this Percussion & Piano Version created by Deane Prouty. Deane has wonderfully created/arranged 2 percussion parts that would complement well with Holst's Orchestral Version along with percussion writing from his own imagination. It can be used in conjunction with the original version for 2 pianos. I got these wonderful parts yesterday in the mail and I've managed to get a good study on them. I also hope to potentially perform this arrangement someday in the future. Deane, you did such an amazing job with this awesome arrangement of "The Planets" for 2 Percussionists & 2 Pianos! I feel that this arrangement is also known as the reduced version for percussionists in general. If you are looking for an arrangement of an orchestral work for Percussion & Piano together! This arrangement would be an excellent choice of music! Hope this review helps.
