0:00 No. 1 (XVI)
From needing danger, to be good,
From owing thee yesterday’s tears today,
From trusting so much to thy blood,
That in that hope, we wound our soul away,
From bribing thee with alms, to excuse
Some sin more burdenous,
From light affecting, in religion, news,
From thinking us all soul, neglecting thus
Our mutual duties, Lord deliver us.
1:41 No. 2 (XX)
Through thy submitting all, to blows
Thy face, thy clothes to spoil, thy fame to scorn,
All ways, which rage, or justice knows,
And by which thou couldst show, that thou wast born,
And through thy gallant humbleness
Which thou in death didst shew,
Dying before thy soul they could express,
Deliver us from death by dying so,
To this world, ere this world doth bid us go.
3:45 No. 3 (XXIII)
Hear us, O hear us Lord; to thee
A sinner is more music, when he prays,
Than spheres, or angels’ praises be,
In panegyric allelujas.
Hear us, for till thou hear us, Lord
We know not what to say.
Thine ear to our sighs, tears, thoughts gives voice and word.
O thou who Satan heard’st in Job’s sick day,
Hear thy self now, for thou in us dost pray.")

Kansas City Symphony
Michael Stern, conductor
In November of 2011, I received a commission from the Kansas City Symphony and the Nelson-Atkins Museum to write a 21st-century _Pictures at and Exhibition._ The idea seemed both intriguing and ambitious, and given my own interest in visual art, I welcomed the challenge. After conceptualizing the piece for six months, and visiting the Nelson-Atkins on three different occasoins, I decided to compose a series of studies.
Unlike Modest Mussorgsky, who set all of his movements to the work of Viktor Hartmann, my piece brings eight seemingly disparate works of art to musical life. In honor of Mussorgsky and his original work (for solo piano), four of the ten movements were conceived in the form of piano etudes and later orchestrated. My main objective was to create an architectural structure that connected each movement to the next while creating an overall arc for the entire piece.
The outcome is _Picture Studies,_ a 28-minute work for orchestra based on four paintings, three photographs, and one sculpture. Creating this series pushed me in a new direction and allowde me to grow as an artist in the most unexpected ways.
The following impromptu notes were jotted down from initial impressions and repeated viewings of the artwork, after my selectoins had been made. These original notes helped dictate the form, style, and musical arc of each movement, and ultimately the entire piece. - Adam Schoenberg, January 4, 2023
0:00 I. Intro
Ghost-like piano theme (using the piano to pay respect to Mussorgsky) that transports the listener to the inside of the Nelson-Atkins Museum.
0:47 II. Three Pierrots
Comedic, naïve, and excited. A triad will represent the three Pierrots, and throughout the movement the triad will be turned upside down, on its side, and twisted in every possible way. The form will be through-composed. End big.
2:34 III. Repetition
Four figures walking, and each person is clearly in his or her own world. The idea of repetition can lend itself to an ostinato. This is a photograph, a slice of life, and represents only one moment in time. Take this concept of time and manipulate it. Change the scenery (lighting, shade, color), so to speak, with a shutter click before returning to its original state. ABA form, with an abrupt switch to B to represent the shutter click.
7:16 IV. Olive Orchard
Extended impressionism. Colorful, full of love. Perhaps a meeting place for two lovers. Start thin, gradually build to an expansive texture, end colourful. ABC (C references A to show the organic growth of the piece).
12:29 V. Kandinsky
Geometrically fierce, angular, sharp, jagged, violent, jumpy, and complex. A battleground. Mustard yellow, encapsulates a sustained intensity. Block structures, cut and paste.
16:14 VI. Calders World
As if time has stopped, dangling metal, atmospheric, yet dark. Quasi-aleatoric gestures, perhaps improvised. Gradually fade to niente.
20:08 VII. Miró
Child-like, yet delirious. There appears to be a sexually ambiguous tone. Try something new, a saxophone or bombastic Eb clarinet solo. Something spontaneous, bouncy, tribal, and raw.
21:33 VIII. Interlude
Return of original Ghost-like piano theme with minimal additional orchestrations. Takes us to the final chapter to be played without pause until the end.
22:14 IX. Cliffs of Moher
Delicate and flowing, find a way to musically represent the ocean and cliffs in the most gentle and subtle means. A return to an ostinato.
23:01 X. Pigeons in Flight
Ive never looked at pigeons this way. There appears to be so much joy, beauty, and depth. This will be the longest and most expansive movement. Fly away.")
