One of the foremost conductors of our time, Marin Alsop, leads Gustav Holst’s iconic The Planets, a work that has inspired generations of sci-fi film composers, featuring the ferocity of “Mars, the Bringer of War”, the high-spirited “Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity,” and the ghostly suspense of “Neptune, the Mystic.” Holst’s exciting, cosmic score features a seven-movement orchestral suite, with each movement named after a planet of the Solar System and its corresponding astrological character as defined by Holst. Following his highly acclaimed SPAC debut in 2022, American violinist Randall Goosby returns to SPAC, performing Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto, the first performance of the work at SPAC in over a decade. Goosby has been heralded by The New York Times for his “sheer virtuosity” and “exquisite tone” and in recent seasons has enjoyed a robust performance schedule with many of the world’s leading ensembles including The Philadelphia Orchestra, New York Philharmonic, Los Angeles Philharmonic, and the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
