Trombone Unit Hannover

Gustav Holst’s The Planets is one of the most frequently played symphonic works from the 20^th century. However, this version – for eight trombones and percussion – will be new for you, because it’s been specially written for Festival 20·21’s 25th birthday. During this opening concert, the planets will come into view one by one, from warmongering Mars to the mystic Neptune. In between planets, the musicians will play the highly mysterious Octet by Georg Friedrich Haas. This evening will surely be a breathtaking experience – literally in the case of the trombonists, and figuratively for the audience.
