Our Take

Simon Johnson takes listeners on a celestial journey with his latest release, "Holst: The Planets / St. Pauls Suite / The Organ Of St. Pauls Cathedral." This album is as ambitious as it is breathtaking, showcasing Johnson's mastery of the organ and his ability to transport us to another dimension.

"The Planets," Holst's iconic suite, is given new life in Johnson's capable hands. From the foreboding Mars to the ethereal Neptune, each movement is brought to life with exquisite precision and passion. Johnson's virtuosity on the organ is nothing short of mesmerising, leaving listeners in awe of his talent.

The St. Pauls Suite is a delightful change of pace, showcasing the versatility of Johnson as an organist. The lively dance movements are infectious, making it impossible to resist tapping your feet along to the music. Johnson's interpretation of this lesser-known piece is nothing short of a revelation, breathing new life into Holst's charming composition.

And finally, the Organ Of St. Pauls Cathedral is the perfect instrument for Johnson to showcase his skills. The grandeur and power of the organ are on full display, as Johnson masterfully navigates its vast sound palette with ease.

Overall, "Holst: The Planets / St. Pauls Suite / The Organ Of St. Pauls Cathedral" is a tour de force from Simon Johnson. This album is a must-listen for any fan of classical music, as Johnson's talent and passion shine through in every note. Get ready to be transported to another world – this is a musical journey you won't soon forget.
