This is an awesome rendering of The Planets. Definitely check it out if you've never heard! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!

Thank you RFabry,
I've been looking for this for ages!

Thanks RFabry for this Dutoit/Holst post. I've also been looking for Dutoit's 1990 recording of Respighi's Roman Trilogy which I have read is one of the best.

The Dutoit version is indeed one of the best of the very many versions of The Planets available. Personally, I prefer the more "rumbustious" recording by John Eliot Gardiner on Deutsche Grammophon, but that's a matter of taste. I also find Bernard Herrmann's old DECCA version from 1972, with its verrrrrrry broad tempi, quite intriguing.

Agreed that this is a very strong rendition of this most famous work, so thanks for the share.

Thank Very Much My Friend !!!!

Thanks very much! :D

Do you mean the 1983 recording? If so I have it.

El Cid, I think it is the 1983 recording I am looking for and it is detailed here Amazon.com: Respighi: The Pines of Rome; The Fountains of Rome; Roman Festivals: Music (http://www.amazon.com/Respighi-Pines-Fountains-Roman-Festivals/dp/B0000041OT) with glowing reviews and I, for one, would be thrilled if you could post it here. Thanks.

Just listening to Ducoit's Planets - It's the best version of this music I've ever heared.
Thanks, RFabri

Herr Salat's link has been added in the top post.

I think you should also change the name of the conductor to "Dutoit" in the first post, and ask some moderator to change it in the title, too. ;)

I just saw him conducting live at the RAH a week ago, I can assure you that his name is Charles Dutoit.

Well that's embarrassing.

thank you for the upload :)

Definitely gonna check this version out. Thanks!
