Many of us grew up listening to film music. For John Williams, film music is the whole world, but he was greatly inspired by the excellent English melodist Gustav Holst, among whose Planets, Star Wars were born. A new concerto by composer Kryštof Marek was commissioned by the Prague Symphony and the horn virtuoso Zuzana Rzounková.
