A pleasure to play Gustav Holst's The Planets: I. Mars, II. Venus, III. Mercury, IV. Jupiter, V. Saturn, VI. Uranus with the Awesome Orchestra, conducted by David Moschler, in near company of first oboist Sue Crum, English hornist Stardust, and
Ashley Ertz on the rarely-heard-and-even-less-seen, borrowed-from-Forrest-Music-for-the-occasion bass oboe.
