Bilder einer Ausstellung / Die Nacht auf dem kahlen Berge / Khovantchina Overture

Album by Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky & Alexander Porfyrevich Borodin & Symfonický orchester Slovenského rozhlasu & Ondrej Lenárd & Slovenská filharmónia & Vladimir Igorevich Verbitsky

This release is a compilation of orchestral works by Modest P. Mussorgsky, drawn from compositions written in the 1860s–1870s. The music combines Russian nationalist harmonies, bold orchestration and folk-influenced themes, and occupies a pivotal place in Mussorgsky's output and in the evolution of late 19th-century Russian orchestral and operatic music.
