In this video Matthew King discusses 'Venus, the Bringer of Peace', the 2nd movement of the Planets Suite by Gustav Holst. The discussion focusses on Holst's beautiful scoring of the movement, a model of orchestration for any aspiring composer. Matthew King also looks at the movement in its relationship with Mars, and discusses Holst's very individual approach to Sonata Form in the piece (which - as far as I know - has never been discussed before) and the remarkable way in which Holst suspends resolution in the tonic until the magical coda which Matthew King suggests has a connection with Holst's background as an organist.

The video contains excerpts from a score-following YouTube video by Maddenhawk, featuring a live (1986) performance of The Planets Suite by the Montreal Symphony Orchestra & Chorus, conducted by Charles Dutoit.

The video also contains an excerpt from a 2015 performance of Holst's The Planets with the BBC Symphony Orchestra and the Elysian Singers (Women's Voices) conducted by Susanna Mälkki at the Proms (Royal Albert Hall, London).

The first video in this series (about Mars) can be seen here: https://youtu.be/_5YaYwid1d4?si=KZ-lX4fye8K0VHQ3
