Modest Mussorgsky's 'Boris Godunov', based on Pushkin's eponymous Demetrius drama, is one of the operas raising the question about their definitive version. After the 'first Boris' was rejected in 1868-69, the work was revised into the 'original Boris' with the help of Mussorgsky's friend Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov, which is the version on which the present book is based.Apart from the libretto, this edition contains introductory commentaries of Kurt Pahlen who also adds information on the compositional structure and context to the musical as well as external and internal dramatic action of the opera. A synopsis and a brief outline of the genesis bring the work into relation with the composer's entire oeuvre and life, thus offering a comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction.

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. De Russische componist Moessorgsky (1839-1881) componeerde Pictures at an Exhibition (Schilderijententoonstelling) in 1874. Zijn inspiratiebron vormden tien schilderijen van de hand van zijn overleden vriend Victor Hartmann,een Russisch architect en kunstenaar. De Franse componist Maurice Ravel maakte in 1922 een orkestratie van Moessorgsky’s compositie - deze is bekender en wordt meer uitgevoerd dan de oorspronkelijke pianosuite. Voor zijn ¬transcriptievan Pictures at an Exhibition gebruikte Tohru Takahahsi echter de originele compositie van Moessorgski. Dit afzonderlijk uitgegeven deel, The Great Gate at Kiev, is waarschijnlijk het bekendst.Obwohl der russische Komponist Modest Petrowitsch Mussorgski hauptsächlich als Komponist von Opern und Liedern bekannt ist, schrieb er auch eine Anzahl von bedeutenden Klavierwerken, wie zum Beispiel die weltberühmte Suite Bilder einer Ausstellung, die vielen besser in der Orchestrierung von Maurice Ravel bekannt ist. Für seine Transkription von Bilder einer Ausstellung griff Tohru Takahashi jedoch auf die ursprüngliche Komposition von Mussorgski zurück. Der separat veröffentlichte Satz Das große Tor von Kiew ist daraus der wohl bekannteste Teil, der immer wieder gerne gespielt und gehört wird.Modest Moussorgski (1839-1881) est considéré comme le grand innovateur de la musique russe. Il a réalisé ses plus grandes créations dans le domaine lyrique, mais n’a jamais manqué de composer des oeuvres pour piano dont le célèbre cycle Tableaux d’une Exposition. Dixième et dernier tableau de la suite, La grande porte de Kiev est certainement le mouvement le plus connu du public. Modest Moussorgski (1839-1881) è considerato il più grande innovatore della musica russa. Ha realizzato le sue più grandi creazioni nel campo della musica lirica, ma ha anche composto opere per pianoforte tra le quali il celebre ciclo Quadri di un’esposizione. Decimo ed ultimo quadro della suite, La grande porta di Kiev è certamente il movimento più conosciuto dal pubblico.

The most important work by the Russian composer Modest Moussorgsky (1839-1881) is undoubtedly his masterly opera Boris Godunov. A number of years after the composer’s death, this opera was re-orchestrated by Rimsky-Korsakov, with his romantic version being quiet different from the original score by Moussorgsky. ‘Love in the Garden’ is a lovely quiet moment from the opera, a beautiful duet between Marina and Dmitri. Add a little romance to any concert with this attractive arrangement for concert band.Het belangrijkste werk van de Russische componist Modest Mussorgsky (1839-1881) is ongetwijfeld zijn magistrale opera Boris Godunov. Een aantal jaren na de dood van de componist werd deze opera door Rimsky-Korsakov bewerkten opnieuw georkestreerd, zijn romantische versie week behoorlijk af van de originele partituur van Moussorgsky. Love in the Garden vormt in de opera een rustpunt, het is een prachtig duet tussen Marina en Dmitri (ook wel Grigorigenaamd). Wil van der Beek maakte er een fraai arrangement van voor harmonieorkest.Das bedeutendste Werk von Modest Mussorgski ist zweifellos seine Oper Boris Godunov. Einige Jahre nach Mussorgskis Tod wurde die Oper von seinem Kollegen Rimski-Korsakow neu orchestriert. Aus seiner romantischen Version, die ziemlich von der Originalpartitur abweicht, nahm sich Wil van der Beek das zärtliche Duett von Marina und Dmitri/Grigori in der Gartenszene vor und bearbeitete es geschickt für Blasorchester. Modest Moussorgski (1839-1881) a largement puisé son inspiration dans la Russie médiévale. Son chef-d’œuvre lyrique Boris Godounov, lui valut une reconnaissance internationale posthume gr ce la version retouchée par son ami Rimski-Korsakov, éclipsant complètement la version originale. Wil van der Beek a arrangé l’un des plus beaux extraits de l’opéra, le duo entre Marina et Dimitri/Grigori : O tsarévitch, je t’implore.

For György Kurtág, Mussorgsky's works have always been an important model. Several of his works contain pieces referring to Mussorgsky (Games III, The Small Snag), and in his opera, Fin de partie, he also refers to Mussorgsky's declamation style. He made these two transcriptions for piano duet in 1989, continuing a series of his earlier pre-Classical transcriptions. The transcriptionswere premiered by the composer and his wife, Márta.
