by Viktor Hartmann,
which Mussorgsky used for his piece
"The Bogatyr Gates (in the Capital in Kiev)"
It's been several months since I've updated music at my YouTube site Camera Musica.
I've recently uploaded some pieces from Modest Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition."
- Promenade No.2
- Il Vecchio Castello
- Promenade No.3
- Tuileries (Children Quarrelling at Play)
- Bydlo
- Promenade No.4
Mussorgsky wrote these pieces after the sudden death of his friend architect and artist Viktor Hartmann. At Hartmann’s death, his many works were displayed at the Academy of Fine Arts in St Petersburg. These are Mussorgsky’s "Pictures at an exhibition."
