Holst's The Planets at the KW Symphony - Tonight and Tomorrow!



The Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony Orchestra will be performing Debussy's Nocturnes and finishing off with Holst's great cosmic work tonight, Friday the 27th, and Saturday the 28th at 8pm. At Centre in the Square. Tickets range from $19 to $75, so if you've got some cash to throw down you better do so.

To anyone reading this, should I die in battle or of a broken heart, I would like Holst's Mars, Bringer of War to be played at my funeral. Timed well, so that when my pyre is shoveled onto a catapult and fired onto a fierce ship I can sail burning and gloriously out to sea:



Oh, the pre-concert talk begins at 7 if you'd like some background info on the pieces being performed.
