One of my favorite songs	Holst: Suite "The Planets" This piece was composed by the British composer Gustav Holst. It is a suite of seven pieces named after the seven planets in the solar system (excluding Earth) out of the eight known at the time of composition. Each movement is well-suited to the image of each planet, and the orchestration captures their characteristics, making it easy to imagine what kind of planet it is and enjoy listening to it! Actually, this song was often played when I was traveling in the car at my parents' house, so when I hear this song, I'm reminded of my parents' house, not the planets...! I think the song that everyone is familiar with is Jupiter, but all the other songs are wonderful, so I would love for you to listen to all the movements!
