With his piano cycle Pictures at an Exhibition from 1874, Mussorgsky created a classic example of programme music. Based on the paintings of his deceased friend Viktor Hartmann, he also composed the lyrical serenade 'Il vecchio castello' (The Old Castle), among others. Hartmann's picture shows a medieval Italian castle with a singing troubadour who accompanies himself on the lute. In Maurice Ravel's subsequent famous orchestral version, the beautiful, melancholy melody was played by the alto saxophone. Accompaniment, prelude and interludes are reminiscent of playing a medieval hurdy-gurdy with its pervading drone bass. Therein lies the continuity of the piece, thereabove lies the quiet romance with its melancholy character - the unrequited love of the troubadour. This separate edition now gives all saxophonists the opportunity to play the piece with piano accompaniment.

Ravel's brilliant compositional interpretation of the Pictures at an Exhibition is, to this day, the most famous and independent orchestration of Mussorgsky's masterpiece. When the French composer turned his attention to his Russian colleague's piano cycle in 1922, he was at the height of his mastery and Paris was enraptured by Russian music. Notated with remarkable accuracy in an autograph score, Ravel's orchestration was an audience favorite from the very start. Jean-Francois Monnard, who previously edited the Breitkopf Urtext editions of Bolero, La Valse and Rapsodie espagnole, presents a text in which even the tiniest detail is authentic. The edition not only eliminates many previously undiscovered errors, but also offers a wealth of practical information on the long and multi-faceted performance history of the work, including the metronome markings of great conductors who were connected to the work in a very special manner.Bibliography:Mayer, Stephan: Sonne fur die Seele.

Leo's Brouwer's Pictures At Another Exhibition, with a title that tips a hat to the Mussorgsky suite of 1874, is presented here for a chamber group of Piano, Horn and Violin. The Cuban composer has created a set of programmatic musical depictions inspired by six works of art ranging from Bosch's Garden Of Earthly Delights to Rauschenberg's Pop Construction. This set consists of six Piano scores, and may be performed in any order or combination. Ideal for chamber performances, or for a smaller ensemble as part of a larger concert, the pieces offer an unusual and exciting addition to any repertoire, and are brimming with the vitality and energy of Brouwer's Cuban origins. Movements are as follows: The Garden Of Earthly Delights: Hieronymus Bosch Portrait Du Chopin: Eugene Delacroix Los Desastres De La Guerra: Francisco Goya The Jungle: Wilfredo Lam Reclining Nude: Amadeo Modigliani Pop Construction: Robert Rauschenberg.
