Lo-Fi Orchestra – Venus from The Planets

Inspired by the legendary Tomita, the Lo-Fi Orchestra presents Venus from Gustav Holst’s Planets Suite.

This features the Arduino MIDI R2R Digital Audio for the soft opening and the Arduino MIDI VS1053 Synth with a guitar sound as the “harp” and later the celeste.  This performance really starts to show the limitations of the Lo-Fi approach to music – it doesn’t do “slow” very well – but there are still moments in this that I really like, especially the final minute or so as it moves towards the conclusion.

This has been programmed in from scratch from the original orchestral score and the composer’s own arrangement for two pianos.
