It's so sad, so many people don't know Gustav Holst. The Planets is my favourite music suite ever created, nothing can beat it.
If you are into modern orchestral music, you should definitely go listen to it. My favourite recording of it, is the one played by the Montreal Symphony Orchestra in 1986.

Thomas Hardy died #OTD in 1928.
So here's Gustav Holst's Egdon Heath, inspired by my favourite of Hardy's novels, The Return of the Native:-

The @tippettquartet’s performances of #VaughanWilliams' #StringQuartets & #Holst's Phantasy are exemplary, but it is the VW String Quartet No. 1 that sets this disc alight with energy & variety of expression
