Pictures at An Exhibition (Mussorgsky)
Despite now being his most well-known work, at the time of Mussorgsky’s death, his Pictures at an Exhibition had been neither published nor performed. Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakove finished the manuscript and it was published in 1886. Based on ten drawings/watercolors by his friend Victor Hartmann (many of which have unfortunately been lost), the piece was originally written for piano solo. Ravel arranged the piece for orchestra in 1922. Several additional arrangements for various instruments have also been created, including this one for cello and piano by Charles Schiff.
