The final concert of Amersham Festival’s ‘CREATING SPACE’ season features one of the all-time great British pieces of orchestral music, presented for the first time ever in St Mary’s in a stunning version for chamber orchestra by George Morton.
In seven astronomic movements, composer Gustav Holst musically paints the characters of Mars, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
