Notturno, Op. 12

Latest Episode

Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition. A masterpiece and tribute to a friend.

Episode 42 April 20, 2021

This masterpiece, originally for piano, was inspired by the tragic loss of a friend, and Ravel's orchestration is a work of art in itself. While roughly half of the original pictures have been lost, we do have descriptions of the originals that give insight to Mussorgsky's music and Ravel's orchestration.
