War?🏹⚖️🌸Peace?🪐“The Planets” Suite✨⚡️ 🔥“MARS, Bringer of War” with 🌼”VENUS, Bringer of Peace” from Gustav Holst’s famous orchestral suite…🌎💫transcribed for piano. Interestingly, in classical mythology, Cupid/Amor (or Greek counterpart, Eros) was in fact the offspring of the love goddess Venus the god of war Mars, their son Cupid being the mythological source of desire, erotic love, attraction, and affection…💘It’s good to be open to life!🫶😅 — #classicalpiano #pianoplayer #pianistsofinst
