    The Great Gate of Kiev - Modest Mussorgsky

    The Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky (1839-1881) was self-educated to a large extent but went on to become one of the ?Mighty Five? which also included Balakirev, Cui, Borodin and Rimsky-Korsakov. Today he is considered the innovator of Russian music par excellence. He composed Pictures at an Exhibition in 1874, inspired by ten pictures produced by his then recently deceased friend, the Russian architect and artist Victor Hartmann. The French composer Maurice Ravel made an orchestration of Mussorgsky?s composition in 1922 which is now more well-known and more performed than the original piano suite. For his transcription of Pictures at an Exhibition, Tohru Takahashimade use of the original piano composition by Mussorgsky. The Great Gate of Kiev, issued here separately, is probably the best known melody from this classical masterpiece.

    Mussorgsky! - [The music of Modest Mussorgsky] / arr. L. C. Harnsberger

    Modest Mussorgsky (1839--1881) was a relatively unknown composer during his lifetime, but some of his works are among today's best-known pieces in concert halls and films. His orchestral work Night on Bald Mountain was immortalized by Walt Disney in Fantasia, and Pictures at an Exhibition is one of the most performed pieces by symphony orchestras. Selections from these two pieces are wonderfully transcribed for young band in Mussorgsky! The arrangement begins with the mystical opening from Night on Bald Mountain which transitions to the hauntingly beautiful conclusion of that same work. To conclude is the "Great Gate of Kiev" from Pictures at an Exhibition which is one of music literature's most inspiring moments. (3:30)

    Pictures at an Exhibition, Part 5 - By Modest Mussorgsky / arr. Carl Simpson

    This orchestration, which is completely original, is primarily based on the autograph manuscript. In accordance with the purpose of the ConcertMasters orchestra series, the orchestra size has been kept small. The only departures from Mussorgsky's original score are the transposition of the entire work up a whole step, simplification of a 16th-note sextuplet accompaniment in "The Hut on Chicken Legs," and selective omission of the "attacca" indications that are found at the end of each Promenade section. Movements: 15. The Hut on Chicken Legs (Baba-Yaga) 16. The Knight's Gate in the Old Capital, Kiev (The Great Gate of Kiev). Instrumentation: 2+Picc.2.2+BCl.2: 4.3.3.1: Timp.Perc)4): Str(9-8-7-6-5).
