Les Tableaux d'une exposition

Album by Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky & Maurice Ravel & Nederlands Philharmonisch Orkest & Walter Goehr & Alexander Porfyrevich Borodin & Orchestre Symphonique d'Utrecht & Paul Hupperts

Pictures at an Exhibition is a suite for solo piano by Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky, composed in 1874. The work alternates march-like interludes with vivid character pieces that draw on Russian folk elements, modal harmonies and striking tonal colour, and it represents a key work of Mussorgsky's mature output that later inspired numerous orchestral arrangements and contributed to late 19th-century musical nationalism.
