\n\nBy contrast, the second half makes a leap to a large seven-movement orchestral suite “Holst: The Planets” which secured a universal place in the repertoire with its depiction of seven planets in our solar system. While hundreds of KSO musicians and Century Voice Chorus perform together, pipe organ in the Concert Hall being put as well, all offer a marvelous, exciting acoustical experience for concert goers. It is worth noting that “Matthews: Pluto, The Renewer” will follow up the suite, KSO being Taiwan Premier to perform this work.
