Harmonies of the Cosmos: Representing Planets Through Music

Music and movement with ribbons

We explored movement to the music of Holst, using his compositions to represent the planets. As we listened, we focused on how the music made us feel—did it inspire us to move faster or slower? When the music changed to reflect a different planet, we adjusted our movements to match the shifts in tempo and mood, allowing the rhythm to guide us.
