#Jupiter - #Gustav#Holst 'The #Planets' Centenary, Holst wrote his 'Planet Suite' while living in #Thaxted. Thaxted people are fond of 'Jupiter' as the tune to the Hymn '#IvowtotheemyCountry', was named 'Thaxted' by Holst himself. https://t.co/iCpdB9F72Y via @YouTube

Thanks to @saffronsymph for a wonderful performance of The Planets by Holst this evening at Thaxted Church. It was a fantastic centenary celebration, thanks to all the volunteers for supporting @FoTChurch
Looking forward to our performance of #Holst#Planets tonight at #Thaxted! If you were thinking of coming, I’m afraid it’s too late - but thanks for the intended support!
Not long until Thaxted Church will be filling up for the centenary performance of The Planets by Gustav Holst. Looking forward to a great evening with @saffronsymph#Holst#Planets#ClassicalMusic

@PaulRLarcombe The tune is known as Thaxted and Holst was church organist at the Parish Church during his time in the town.
