With a limited number available, this is a true collector’s edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manuscript of the full score of \u003cem\u003eThe Planets\u003c\/em\u003e reproduced in this edition represents the work as it was first performed in 1918, three years before the first published edition. Not all of the manuscript is in Holst’s handwriting, since pressure of work and the painful neuritis in his arm meant that he had to rely on amanuenses to help him complete the score. There is a detailed description of the various handwritings, and two appendices help to illustrate how Holst worked with his assistants: these are Holst’s autograph arrangements of \u003cem\u003eMars \u003c\/em\u003efor two pianos and of \u003cem\u003eNeptune\u003c\/em\u003e for organ duet. The textual collation lists all the differences between the manuscript and the printed score.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55182291861878,"sku":"9780571542734","price":154.37,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_32709896.jpg?v=1738317638","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780571542734-the-planets-facsimile-edition-score","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
