Holst gets a bad rap, and I'm pleased to hear that you're aiming to correct it, Bob. He was an inventive composer, like many British composers of the time whose playlist we have reduced to war. horses, e.g., The Planets. Even there, a good recording of The Planets can be marvelous.

For The Planets Holst gets the same kind of poo-pooing that Vivaldi gets for Four Seasons, due in part to market saturation. But both their discographies span wider than that, though it's true that a lot of Vivaldi sounds "the same."
Agreed, dan. Fortunately, both Elgar and Vaughan Williams are enjoying resurgence. I love them.
