Pictures At An Exhibition
Modest Musorgskij / G. B. Buchner-Fritsch (arrangement)
Symphonic Melodrama
Content and score samples: Promenade I · Gnomus · Promenade II · The Old Castle · Promenade III · The Tuileries · Bydlo (Intro) · Bydlo (Reprise) · Promenade IV · Ballet of the Chickens in their Shells · Samuel Goldenberg and Schmyle · Promenade V · A Market Place in Limoges · Catacombae · Con mortuis in lingua mortua · The Hut of Baba Yaga (m.677ff) · The Hut of Baba Yaga (m.744ff) · The Bohatyr Gate of Kiev (beginning) · The Bohatyr Gate of Kiev (m.890ff)

Finally! With this new arrangement you can bring Pictures At An Exhibition to sound in all its shades of coulors with your complete ensemble. Attendant words let the pictures of V. Hartmann, which have partly been lost, come alive.

To enable you to upgrade to the complete symphonic orchestra score, the string section has been retained (apart from very few exceptions) in its former version. Newly appear ad lib. winds as follow: 2 x in C, 2-3 x in B, 2 x in E-flat and 2 x in C-bass. Guitar, harp, percussion instruments (cymbals, temple blocks, timbrel, glockenspiel etc.) and timpani ad lib. round off the symphonic spectrum. The arrangement is interesting for all instruments and contains partly more demanding tasks.

The Pictures at an Exhibition are really 'cool' and they please even sophisticated musicians. We appreciate especially the poetry your arrangements contain. And whoever is keeping the original score in his hands will enjoy the great care of the arrangement.
