A picturesque world woven with the colors of Russian music
Muti and the Philadelphia Orchestra perform orchestral works by Mussorgsky and Stravinsky.
The Ravel arrangement of "Pictures at an Exhibition" beautifully expresses the descriptive quality of each piece, highlighting the orchestra's vibrant colors. The "Firebird" suite depicts the fantasy of Russian folk tales through music, and Muti's passionate conducting breathes life into the work. This is a superb performance that allows you to fully enjoy the rich tones and narrative qualities of Russian music.
