…was the New York premiere of 'The Planets', a composition I always dug. I was gonna go with the footage from the ballet class because I figured the plucky elementary-age kids embodied what maestro Holst was going for. But the editing was choppy and I don't care how cute the kids are, the integrity of the films comes first! (I think it was Cecil B. Demille that said that) Going without the strings is quite a challenge. Nice work, Hollywood Wind Ensemble.
