Pictures at an Exhibition / A Night on the Bare Mountain

Album by Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky

Pictures at an Exhibition and A Night on the Bare Mountain are compositions by Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky, written in 1874 and 1867 respectively. Both works exemplify programme music rooted in Russian folk idioms and employ bold harmonic language, vivid orchestral colours and dramatic contrasts, and they occupy a central place in Mussorgsky's output as examples of his turn towards nationalistic and innovative compositional techniques.
