Jovian Farewell is a carefully paced memorial work, with the title referring to the planet Jupiter and the music incorporating the famous chorale by Gustav Holst. The familiar melody is hinted at early, then developed through a series of layers and phases with building intensity. The full chorale emerges near the end, then tapers peacefully to a tender close.

you don't know pain unless you've felt like the tempo kept changing in this song

[@user-ze9sr6rf3j]

Yes

[@imnothere5205]

I have to play it multiple times this month due to festivals and field trips to elementary schools. 😞

[@addieshark.123]

Love the chimes

[@morethanjustfaith]

I like the references to Jupiter by Holst

[@cerasinopshodgskissi3817]

I was thinking the same thing. I did selections from the Planets last year and when I heard this piece I immediately thought of that.

[@morethanjustfaith]

My orchestra played Mars for a fall concert, I never played jupiter, but I've listened to it multiple times.

You're clearly a bot.

[@canalbandashow]

@@FloppityFloppify I'm a bot why do I comment and praise all videos?

[@canalbandashow]

@@FloppityFloppify you should do the same and recognize the work of the artists, I invite you to meet the bands from Brazil

[@FloppityFloppify]

​@@canalbandashow Recognizing work isn't about copy and pasting the same comments like you do.

[@canalbandashow]

@@FloppityFloppify and what do you want me to comment if your intention is in a different language

[@hanotnoam9483]

C'est enivrant comme musique ! J'apprécie beaucoup les larges sonorités offertes par les basses, et ce côté un peu plus rythmique

[@somerandumguy]
