Based on the autograph manuscript and earliest editions, editor Nancy Bricard addresses the sources and discrepancies between the various publications of Moussorgsky's most important contribution to piano literature - Pictures at an Exhibition. This well-researched edition describes the close relationship between the composer and Russian artist Victor Hartmann, whose paintings and sketches inspired the creation of this collection of musical works. Bricard offers fascinating insight into the composer's compositional process by including music passages in her footnotes that Moussorgsky had discarded from the autograph. Also discussed are matters of tempo, fingering, pedaling and interpretation, as well as background on the historical, cultural and social environment that influenced the composer's music.

This new enlarged edition contains the easier pieces from 'Pictures at an Exhibition' (Promenade, Gnomes, Il vecchio castello, Bydlo).An ideal anthology for Mussorgsky fans and newcomers to his work. / Piano

Par MOUSSORGSKY MODEST / RAVEL MAURICE (Arr.) . Ravel’s brilliant compositional interpretation of the Pictures at an Exhibition is, to this day, the most famous and independent orchestration of Mussorgsky’s masterpiece. When the French composer turned his attention to his Russian colleague’s piano cycle in 1922, he was at the height of his mastery and Paris was enraptured by Russian music. Notated with remarkable accuracy in an autograph score, Ravel’s orchestration was an audience favorite from the very start. Jean-François Monnard, who previously edited the Breitkopf Urtext editions of Boléro , La Valse and Rapsodie espagnole , presents a text in which even the tiniest detail is authentic. The edition not only eliminates many previously undiscovered errors, but also offers a wealth of practical information on the long and multi-faceted performance history of the work, including the metronome markings of great conductors who were connected to the work in a very special manner.

La densité de l'écriture de cette oeuvre majeure du répertoire des pianistes avait appelé des orchestrations célèbres. Sa transcription pour piano à quatre mains par Bruno ROSSIGNOL vient combler une lacune. L'intimité de l'instrument d'origine est ici préservée tout en s'ouvrant, par les possibilités que réserve cette instrumentation, à des sonorités et à une amplitude de contrastes neufs. / Piano À 4 Mains
