Composed by Gustav Holst. Arranged by Reese Blaskowski. This edition: pdf, streaming. 20th Century, Contemporary. Score and parts. 42 pages. Reese Blaskowski #3364561. Published by Reese Blaskowski (A0.856468).
Unleash the raw intensity and rhythmic drive of "Mars, the Bringer of War" from The Planets by Gustav Holst in this gripping arrangement for brass quintet and piano. One of the most iconic movements in all of orchestral music, Mars explodes with tension, drama, and relentless energy—now reimagined to showcase the full power and precision of a brass ensemble, grounded and enriched by the piano’s percussive presence.
This arrangement maintains the haunting 5/4 ostinato, aggressive fanfares, and apocalyptic atmosphere of the original orchestration, while adapting seamlessly to a chamber ensemble format. It’s a bold choice for advanced performers looking to make a lasting impression in concert, competition, or themed performances exploring war, space, or dramatic symphonic literature.
Mars demands attention—and this arrangement delivers. Whether you’re performing for a classical crowd or introducing dramatic orchestral literature in a bold, compact format, Mars for brass quintet and piano is sure to captivate and thrill your audience.
