Concert Information
Music inspired by pictures at art exhibitions - by Mussorgsky and, in the form of a first performance, the late, great Oliver Knussen.
Mussorgsky's brilliant translation of paintings into music in Pictures at an Exhibition have inspired others to take similar approaches. Treat yourself to the posthumous first performance (and a second performance) of the late Oliver Knussen's piece interpreting pictures and objects seen at the Cleveland Museum of Art, from Goya and Gaugin to a Fabergé clock.
