Composer Modest Moussorgsky (1839-1881) came from the prosperous environment of Russian nobility. In 1865, after his officer’s education, he joined the guard’s regiment in St. Petersburg. Here he met a number of well-known colleague-composers, including Balakirev, Cui, Rimsky- Korsakov and Borodin. They strived to develop a “classical style” of composing while at the same time retaining a strong Russian influence. His opera Boris Godunov tells the tale of Boris, who with the support of the people, declared himself Tsar, but totally fell short of the role. The opera became popular in the re-orchestrated version produced by Rimsky-Korsakov in 1896. Tohru Takahashi has usedthe beautiful musical themes of this opera in Selections from Boris Godunov - a captivating work for concert band.

Moussorgsky’s opera Boris Godunov - gebaseerd op het gelijknamige drama van Aleksandr Pushkin (waarin Boris Godunov zichzelf met steun van het volk uitroept tot tsaar, maar in deze rol compleet tekortschiet) - werd populairin de bewerking die Rimsky-Korsakov in 1896 maakte. De oorspronkelijke partituur van Moussorgsky staat echter vol originele vondsten en vooruitstrevende harmonische, melodische en instrumentale details. Tohru Takahashi gebruiktede prachtige muzikale thematiek van deze opera in Selections from Boris Godunov - een boeiend werk voor harmonieorkest.

Se in Meisterwerk, die Oper Boris Godunow, schrieb Mussorgski auf der Grundlage des gleichnamigen Dramas von Alexander Puschkin. In diesem Stück erklärt sich Boris Godunow mit Unterstützung des Volkes selbst zum Zaren, versagt aber kläglich in dieser Rolle. Das Werk ist voll von einzigartigen Ideen und damals sehr innovativen harmonischen, melodischen und instrumentalen Details. Tohru Takahashi verwendete in Selections from Boris Godunov die wunderschönen musikalischen Themen der Oper - ein bezauberndes Werk für Blasorchester.

Com positeur essentiellement autodidacte, Modest Moussorgski (1839-1881) descend d’une famille aisée de la noblesse russe. Son chef-d’oeuvre lyrique Boris Godounov est basé sur la tragédie d’Alexandre Pouchkine, dans laquelle Boris Godounov, tsar autoproclamé et soutenu par le peuple faillit son rôle. En 1896, l’opéra connaît le succès dans une version retouchée par Rimski-Korsakov. La version originale de Moussorgski contient cependant des idées uniques, des détails harmoniques, mélodiques et instrumentaux innovateurs. Pour réaliser cette pièce captivante pour Orchestre d’Harmonie, Tohru Takahashi a rassemblé les superbes thèmes musicaux de l’opéra.

Compos itore essenzialmente autodidatta, Modest Mussorgski (1839-1881) discende da una famiglia agiata della nobilt russa. Il suo capolavoro lirico, Boris Godunov, si basa sulla tragedia di Alexander Puschkin, nella quale Boris Godunov, proclamatosi zar e sostenuto dal popolo, fallisce nel suo ruolo. Nel 1896, l’opera conosce il successo in una versione ritoccata da Rimski Korsakov. La versione originale di Mussorgski contiene idee uniche, dettagli armonici, melodici e strumenti innovativi. Per trascrivere questo brano per banda, Tohru Takahashi ha raccolto i superlativi temi musicali dell’opera.
