Note |
Originally a suite for orchestra and wordless women's chorus. |
|
Although chiefly for solo organist, "a second player adding one line became necessary for certain phrases in Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn. The enormous complexity of the last movement, Neptune, necessitates two players throughout; at one moment all four manuals and pedal, with four hands, two feet, and a pencil holding a long note, are heard at once."--Notes, p. 2. |
