The first and third movements (of the large orchestra version) were read by the Rutgers Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Kynan Johns in May of 2015; the second was read by the same group in November of that year. Recordings of the readinsg are the first three pieces in the playlist at right. The other three are MIDI renditions of all three movements; more accuracy, less musicality. The Dwarf Planets is available for purchase here.
