TV BBC Proms - Season 68 Episode 56 : Prom 56: Holst – The Planets BBC Proms - Season 68 Episode 56 : Prom 56: Holst – The Planets 7.7/10 by 3 users Masterpieces from Schoenberg, Holst and Scriabin offer three very different portraits of 20th-century music in this concert by the London Philharmonic Orchestra and Vladimir Jurowski. Big tunes and vivid characterisation make Holst’s The Planets a perennial favourite, while Scriabin’s Prometheus is an eccentric musical experiment. Premiered at the Proms in 1912, Schoenberg’s Five Orchestral Pieces took tonality to a new limit.
