Par HOLST GUSTAV. L'errance érudit, dernier opéra de Holst, a été écrit en 1929-30 : son titre original était 'Le conte de l'érudit Wandering'. Il fut créé dans The David Lewis Theatre, Liverpool, en 1934, menée par le Dr J. E. Wallace et produit par Frederick Wilkinson. C'était quelques mois avant la mort de Holst, et il était trop malade pour aller à la performance. Il n'avait aucune chance de réviser le score, qui est resté inédit jusqu'à maintenant. Il a laissé plusieurs crayon interroge dans les marges, tels que ' Tempo? ', ' Plus? ', ' Harmonie plus? ', etc.. Et dans l'un de ses livres-note qu'il quitte les requêtes sur plusieurs mots dans le livret qu'il avait des doutes sur. Les éditeurs ont répondu à ces requêtes en faisant quelques altérations en vitesse et dynamique et en suggérant des marques de métronome tout au long de l'ouvrage. Ils ont également fait plusieurs altérations dans le livret qui ils se sentent que Holst aurait pu lui-même s'il avait eu l'occasion de réviser le travail avec son ami Clifford Bax.

Les planètes, à l'origine d'une suite pour orchestre, a été composée entre 1914 et 1916 par Gustav Holst. Holst s'est toujours intéressé à l'astrologie et par conséquent a été inspiré de prendre les sept planètes du système solaire pour créer une suite. Thèmes tels que ' Mars, le porteur de guerre ' et ' Vénus, le porteur de paix ' sont d'une part la preuve que Gustav Holst partiellement a également examiné les caractéristiques mythologiques des dieux et déesses. D'autre part, ces thèmes montrent que 'The Planets' a été créé en vertu de l'impression de la seconde guerre mondiale. Cette édition de ' The Planets ' est une édition pour Piano solo. L'éditeur Katsuma Nakajima définie une valeur élevée sur le sentiment de la puissance orchestrale dans l'édition pour Piano ainsi. La version piano est donc semblable à la version originale et contient ainsi tous les sept thèmes.Sept thèmes sont: ' Mars, le porteur de guerre ', ' Vénus, le porteur de paix ', 'Mercure, le messager ailé', 'Jupiter, le porteur de joie', ' Saturn, le porteur de vieillesse ', ' Uranus, la... / Piano
