Yes, a very good suite, one of my favorites. But also in there is the Nutcracker Suite, and the Lt. Kajiv Suite(sp? I don't have my scores on me). Both are very good pieces, a bit tricky at times, yes, but who in music doesn't enjoy a good challenege?

I have to look that up I never heard of the Kajiv Suite, as far as the Nutcrackerits a very good suite. I can't really get into it myself especially the Russain Dance. The planet Suite is so mature a nd elegant for its time 1916-1918 especially from a man who was going through a mid life crisis. Thanks for your response

And I'll agree, the Nutcracker suite isn't exactly the best of the best, but it's still a very good composition. It's more of a fun piece, in my opinion.

My knowledge of classical is sorta limited, but I would have to say my favorite is probably the Nutcracker like bandteacher mentioned. You can't go wrong with it, around this time of year especially.
I do hear this Planet suite getting talked about hear and there though, and I'm gonna check it out when I get the chance. Sounds interesting for sure. |
