Event Description

“The images in the movie…were often astonishing. Photographs from rovers and satellites, radar images and computer-generated graphics were combined to give the audience the impression of circling individual planets and sometimes flying over their awesomely barren landscapes.” —The New York Times

Experience a profound new approach to Gustav Holst’s symphonic powerhouse, The Planets: live, with HD images from NASA.

William Henry Curry, Resident Conductor;
North Carolina Master Chorale
