With Gustav Holst’s atmospheric 1916 orchestral suite The Planets, Daniel Harding embarks on a cosmic musical journey through our solar system. Each of the seven planets has its own musical character, from rugged Mars to mystical Neptune. Holst was greatly inspired by Arnold Schoenberg’s Five Orchestral Pieces, which oscillate intriguingly between late Romanticism and Modernism. Completing the programme, Brett Dean’s Komarov’s Fall was commissioned by the Berliner Philharmoniker in 2006 as a musical “asteroid” to Holst’s Planets.

Few have had such an influence on the course of music history as Arnold Schoenberg. However, reducing him solely to the role of innovator does not do justice to his fascinatingly diverse oeuvre. On the occasion of Schoenberg’s 150th birthday, a focus over two seasons provides an opportunity to rediscover the composer.
