Description

Holst Planets Suite - 7 old Columbia 78 shellac records 
78" LPs featuring The Planets Suite by Gustav Holst. It is conducted by Gustav himself in front of The London Symphony Orchestra. The records are in very good condition and held within a set book with sleeves. The main cover is somewhat worn/torn but as this comes from 1930 im amazed there is anything left at all of it. The seven LPs feature the Planets Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The record label is Columbia, and a unique time where Gustav conducted the orchestra himself therefore making the music he actually wanted for his suites of music.

LSO conducted by composer.
An orchestral suite by Gustav Holst, written between 1914 and 1916.
The binder is in very poor condition and is falling apart as shown in the images. However, the main job is to keep the record collection safe and it does so just fine. 
eBay only allows for 12 images, so if you require any further images of a particular 78 that is pictured, please don't hesitate to message.
You won't be disappointed with this set.
