Favorite G. Holst piece?

It's good, but mars, altough jaded in our minds from years of repetition in so many games and movies, could probably count as my favorite.
Played it in high school. 🙂

col legno ftw
 
come on people.. Holst wrote a lot more than The Planets.. besides.. how outdated are they now? Hello.. we have more than 7 planets these days ;-)

Okay, I like the planets too.. but we can't ignore First Suite and Eb and Second Suite in F.. they are both wonderful pieces of music.
 
Can't say I really care for Holst, but I do have fun memories of playing his pieces when one is in a full orchestra. I'd say I like his Suites the best, but none in particular.
