Gustav Holst's "The Planets" suite consists of seven movements, each named after a different planet in the solar system and its corresponding astrological character. The movements are: "Mars, the Bringer of War," "Venus, the Bringer of Peace," "Mercury, the Winged Messenger," "Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity," "Saturn, the Bringer of Old Age," "Uranus, the Magician," and "Neptune, the Mystic." The suite was composed between 1914 and 1917 and is notable for its orchestral richness and innovative use of rhythm and harmony.
