Pictures at an Exhibition

Album by Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky

Pictures at an Exhibition is a suite for piano by Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky, composed in 1874. The work is a cycle of character pieces inspired by an exhibition of artworks, characterised by vivid piano colours, modal and chromatic harmonies, bold rhythms and folkloric gestures, and it occupies an important place in Mussorgsky's output and in the late-Romantic Russian repertoire, later becoming widely orchestrated.
