Excerpt:

Picture of Romantic Russia.
It was for the piano that Mussorgsky expressed his impressions of an exhibition: in the original version the extraordinary power of the Pictures is quite as stunning as the “orchestral” effect of the no less famous Night on the Bald Mountain.

This title was released for the first time in 1988.
