Each approach shows something. This piece has some marvelous changes of tonality, and this shows that. I may do another version showing instrument (if I do, I'll post it on my musanim channel).
As a lover of classical music and a software developer, this and all your other videos just blow me away. I have long imagined being able to find a way to "visualize" my favorite pieces. You work far exceeds anything I could ever do. Thank you for your efforts, and especially for sharing.
These scores/animations have gotten more detailed. I will enjoy studying them for the nuances of instrument doubling, dynamics and note shapes. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.
Fantastic, Mr. Malinowski! Thanks for creating this. I really love how you've visualized the unmeasured tremolos, and especially the tambourine at around 2:23.
The Planets is one giant film score temp track quite literally, there are so many movie scores that borrow from this (not just star wars) the part from 3:20 has always reminded me of lord of the rings.
John Appleseed that bit was made into a British patriotic song called “I vow to thee my country” that gets played at funerals and on Remembrance Day, though yea it do sound a fuckton like LoTR
it ha no NO resemblance to the theme from Lord of the Rings , It's also the case that no English person would ever think that because the part you're refering to was massively famous long before any film came out, It had words set to it (not originally) " I vow to thee my country" anyone who thinks this is like the theme to LOTR must be tone deaf
+Jack Kraizman and the poster probably speaks a Romance language and should be forgiven for not having mastered the nuances of our language's grammar; I appreciate that he got enough of it to make himself understood.
+B. Xoit Yes, I'm from Spain and of course english is not my mother language. Thanks for undestand me :D Y sí, mi madre solía despertarnos con compositores clásicos y esta especialmente me recuerda a ella :(
Your data visualization work is absolutely breathtaking, it makes these pieces that I already enjoy so much even more engrossing. This is my personal favorite, as the song is gorgeous, complemented perfectly by the way you have visualized it. Also, watching and listening to Albeniz's Leyenda has inspired me to pick my guitar back up and work on re-learning that song. Thank you so very much!
Thanks for your efforts Smalin, it's much appreciated. To the common man classical music can sometimes seem stuffy, I think what you do adds an extra dimension to the music. I take my hat off to you Sir.
You're quite welcome. But if you think you couldn't do as well as I have if you tried, you're probably mistaken. Nothing I've done has taken any special skill; I've just kept plugging away. If you have time and desire, join the fray.
It's on my list. But I'm more of a producer than a consumer; I usually only see one or two movies a year. I just saw Lincoln and Life of Pi, so I'm full up for now.
Actually, it was the other way around: the middle of this was extracted to serve as a setting for those words. See the Wikipedia entry for I_Vow_to_Thee,_My_Country for more information about this.
I'm glad you made this score after I had been wishing for you to for so long. I would just like to say that when I watch these videos, I catch things i have never heard otherwise. My only thing I did not like if that I would have prefered this to be a tad quicker, but excellent score!
Very Pleased to see you return to tonally ordered colour panels! I especially love how the Scherzo parts are in reddish colours and "I vow to thee my country" in sea-greens. Beautiful
Thank you so much for this clip. Gustav Holst is one of my all-time favorite composers, and The Planets is my favorite among his music. I too was surprised not to find any onscreen lyrics to that phase in the middle of the song which is the melody to "I Vow To Thee, My Country" but I suppose there isn't supposed to be lyrics due to Holst's opposition to patriotism :) Rock on Mister G and may your suite live on
He didn't plan on there being lyrics. He just noticed the lyrics given to him rhythmically fit that part of the song (which he was working on at the time) so he applied them and basically said "here you go!" And finished his work.
Actually, I'm in the process of developing a live-performance version of my system. It was premiered in Nürnberg in October. If you have an ensemble (and the necessary equipment: computer, projector, screen, etc.), you might want to contact me (go to my web site) so that we can see whether it might make sense to work together on something.
This is really great. I always thought many film score composers took a lot of inspiration from Holst's Jupiter as well as the other Planets. I'd like to see more Holst renditions.
You're right, of course. I guess I'm referring to the translucence, length, and size of the different shapes. The colors are more obvious. While watching the notes as they go by, I get caught up in the sound - it is music, after all - and don't pay strict attention to your details. But over time I am making the connections. As a guitarist who reads music, I haven't had much experience with scores but this is a great tool to study with. Thanks, again for your dedication.
My only complaint is that I can't give this more than one thumb's up. Well done -- on a par with your animation of Stravinski's "Rite of Spring". Thanks for taking the time and trouble to provide us with this innocent pleasure.
Adapted by Manfred Mann's Earth Band to become the UK hit single "Joybringer" in 1973. So, I put both versions in my "MM.." playlist. Thanks for the upload!
Yes, pitch-coloring, I love it (I've been following your vids for quite a few years). I also love the colors in the Chopin etude #10, the Scriabin prelude op 67, Debussy's Afternoon of a Faun and the Mendelssohn string octet. Not sure why, but they stand out for me because of their coloring.
I'm not planning to. However, I suggested it to another RUclips channel (who does graphical score videos like mine), and he said he'd do them (and post them as video responses to this video), so it may happen.
all time favorite piece music. I'm trying to convince my band teacher to let us play it next year. He says its challenging.(I never would have guessed) : )
That would be great, will do! You can see a video of the ensemble that me and my professor made on my page it is called EChO and is a completely electronic chamber orchestra. Also, I just read through the conductor program link on your site, looks tremendous! Again great work!
0:05 I saw a joke somewhere about how this could be used as a news intro.
omg i never thought of that
Probably cuz of the fast strings and the minor pentatonic scale many news intros have that type of thing
Each approach shows something. This piece has some marvelous changes of tonality, and this shows that. I may do another version showing instrument (if I do, I'll post it on my musanim channel).
To smalin: Gustav Holst himself would be so envious of what you did.
EXCELLENT JOB.
As a lover of classical music and a software developer, this and all your other videos just blow me away. I have long imagined being able to find a way to "visualize" my favorite pieces. You work far exceeds anything I could ever do. Thank you for your efforts, and especially for sharing.
I played this piece in my high school orchestra over 20 years ago and it still takes my breath away
3:21 to 5:04 is my favorite part. I absolutely love it.
SarahLJP that's everyones favourite part lol.
Not for me lol
Reference: I vow to thee my country, A British Patriotic song, The tone is even similar
@@SL6NtheNorseman same my favorite is the rest of the piece lol
Holst takes the Britishness to a whole new level.
Holst deserves credit for the dramatic modulations (which my pitch-based coloring method highlights).
These scores/animations have gotten more detailed. I will enjoy studying them for the nuances of instrument doubling, dynamics and note shapes. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.

The Planets is one giant film score temp track quite literally, there are so many movie scores that borrow from this (not just star wars) the part from 3:20 has always reminded me of lord of the rings.
If you're a famous or prominent Brit, you may even have part of "Jupiter" played at your funeral (from about 3:25 or so to about 5:00).
There's a theme in Sibelius' 3rd symphony's first movement that has been just copied to Lord of the rings soundtrack.
John Appleseed that bit was made into a British patriotic song called “I vow to thee my country” that gets played at funerals and on Remembrance Day, though yea it do sound a fuckton like LoTR
Star Wars almost used Mars as the theme song until John Williams said he would write the score to Star Wars

Que hermoso arreglo musical! Es una maravilla de la tecnología electrónica. Gracias por compartir ésta sinfonía. Saludos desde Monterrey N.L México.
I love it.
My mother used to wake us with classic composers and that sècially remembers me her :(
+juan lozano grammer? "i think you meant, 'My mother used to wake us up with classic composers and that specifically reminds me of her.'"?
+Jack Kraizman grammer? I think you mean grammar.

This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. Everyone should see this before they die.

Gorgeous! The colors in this one are sublime. Can't wait to share it with my students, they will love it. Thanks!
Many thanks for bringing us this masterpiece!
:-)
You have no idea how happy I am that you did this song! It's one of my all time favorites! Saw CSO play it at Rivinia over the summer.
Love this piece.
This video is shared on Facebook and Twitter, because it really is beautiful and everyone should see it at least once.
I didn't know how long I've been waiting for this... just amazing
This is one of my all time favourite pieces, so thank you :)
It's beautiful listening to the piece that got me interested in classical music with a graphical score. Thank you so much for sharing!
Woohoo! I am sooo happy you finally did it, Smalin! You da man! Thank you for your work! SMALIN! SMALIN! SMALIN!
Thank you so much smalin. i was waiting for this day to come. Hope you will be able to do all of the other planets' suites. :)
ruclips.net/p/PLtj_HurkS7ZytD8sjArBfsfx_gsimSzV-
Awesome! I knew this piece had a lot of elements to it but there are parts that I've never heard/realized! Great job!
Omg. The Strings right at the start get me every time.
This was the most incredable thing I've ever seen!... Thank you, thanks so much!
Amazing... Didn't feel like 8 mins at all I was completely feeling it, completely absorbed by it. Awesome indeed.
It's on my list. But I'm more of a producer than a consumer; I usually only see one or two movies a year. I just saw Lincoln and Life of Pi, so I'm full up for now.
This piece was an absolute joy to play last year with my orchestra. :)
Actually, it was the other way around:
the middle of this was extracted to serve as a setting for those words.

I_Vow_to_Thee,_My_Country

This so amazing! It's like seeing the music as you listen! Also this is my favorite orchestral piece of all time!!!!!!

When the orchestra finished, I was imagining applauding this great piece!
This was such a wonderful and exhilarating piece to play when I still played the violin!
i really like the way this song sounds, and the animation is top notch!
This video elicits so much emotion when I watch it!
I'm so happy you did one for Jupiter!
Amazing, mesmerizing, fascinating! Thank you!
Seasonal, anthemic, legendary, brave, uplifting, celebratory. Love it. Thank you :)

I love the planets. One of the best works of music ever.
Best movement from the planets
thanks steve... this is magnificent
your videos always seem to cheer me up...
These graphic representations are, for one who doesn't read music. absolutely fascinating!
My only complaint is that I can't give this more than one thumb's up.
Well done -- on a par with your animation of Stravinski's "Rite of Spring".
Thanks for taking the time and trouble to provide us with this innocent pleasure.
This is so beautiful, it makes me cry og joy
wow can't believe you took the time to do this epic.
4:40 is the best bit, the two timpanists absolutely smash it!
3:21 The best part here. To be more beautiful it should be slowed down into 0.75 speed
Adapted by Manfred Mann's Earth Band to become the UK hit single "Joybringer" in 1973. So, I put both versions in my "MM.." playlist. Thanks for the upload!
I love that song too.
i just don't know how to describe the way this piece makes me feel, especially the middle sections...
thank you for no commercials ... seriously
He literally can’t. It’s not 10 min.
I chose not to over-burden my viewers with ads (though I could).
Can you do Mars too? and yes I understand if you don't want to.
ruclips.net/p/PLtj_HurkS7ZytD8sjArBfsfx_gsimSzV-
Gah! Now I finally remember the name of what has been stuck in my head for, like, weeks. I feel so liberated.
I remembered my teacher showing this to me. now that I have found it this kinda brings back memories! 😊😊😊
Wow, that is really cool. Thank you very much for sharing.
Cool! I'm so glad to have made music more satisfying for you.
Thank you. That is beautiful. But not just The Planets. Everybody needs more Holst.
I love the entire Planets' Suite symphony and the Jupiter movement is my favorite
ruclips.net/p/PLtj_HurkS7ZytD8sjArBfsfx_gsimSzV-
Wowowowowowowow! LOVE...IT. Thank you for creating this!
I love the very beginning of this movement and the part that Grant Woolard used in his Classical Music Mashup.
AWESOME Stephen...!!
That ending was awesome!
Amazing how the high strings near the end create an image of a starry night sky.
Yes, pitch-coloring, I love it (I've been following your vids for quite a few years). I also love the colors in the Chopin etude #10, the Scriabin prelude op 67, Debussy's Afternoon of a Faun and the Mendelssohn string octet. Not sure why, but they stand out for me because of their coloring.
This was the #1 classical piece by popular vote this year on Radio New Zealand Concert. It pushed the very popular A Lark Ascending to second place!
Eyup. Couldn't help but think of the score from Star Trek IV the whole time I was listening.
I'm not planning to. However, I suggested it to another RUclips channel (who does graphical score videos like mine), and he said he'd do them (and post them as video responses to this video), so it may happen.
Understandable. Keep the videos coming!
it's heavily snowing where I am and this masterpiece somehow fits the weather perfectly :)
I play this when watching the sunrise around Jool(In Kerbal Space Program)
......I have no life
Incredible, great work. : )
This is fantastic.
At 4:20 that is one of my favourite bits. Ah and 4:40
I was always a fan of Mars; when I first heard it all those years ago, I was hooked.
all time favorite piece music. I'm trying to convince my band teacher to let us play it next year. He says its challenging.(I never would have guessed) : )
mesmerizing
I remember hearing 2:50 in the preview I once saw for Patrick Stewart's "From Here to Infinity, The Ultimate Voyage"
imo it sounds more like the original if you move it up to 1.25 in speed
Funny you should post that comment today; see today's comments on this video: ruclips.net/video/Vh-7NZbg65M/видео.html
once again, a pleasure
I love this piece! I was wondering if you could do an animated score to... Just kidding, Your work is amazing, I hope you keep doing this.
6:56 Makes Me Say the Word “Plus”
That was amazing! Oh my god! I love seeing all the modulation so clearly--have you done any other videos with color used this way?
Genius! Thank you.
That would be great, will do! You can see a video of the ensemble that me and my professor made on my page it is called EChO and is a completely electronic chamber orchestra. Also, I just read through the conductor program link on your site, looks tremendous! Again great work!
This was the only recording I found that I could license for this use.
I've never realized before how much this sounds like something from Star Trek
i love how you showed the tambourine
it is great
Fantastic!!
Fabuloso, incrível!
played this song in band, always made me feel like i was playing zelda
