PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION Choreographed Paintings

About Me

Composer Modest Moussorgsky's most famous work 'Pictures at an Exhibition' was inspired by the paintings of his friend and artist Victor Hartmann . The music stayed, the paintings vanished. Over one hundred years later, artist-director Natasha Turovsky created her artistic version of Moussorgsky's music. Fifteen pictures, inspired by the music inspired by the pictures, come alive through digital animation. creating the atmosphere and mood of each movement of Moussorgsky's music. Each image 'dances' with the music, and in this 'symbiotic' form the public will be able to listen as well as 'see' the music


PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION - Choreographed Paintings exists in two forms as an independent animation film and as a concert-projection with a live music played by I Musici de Montreal chamber orchestra .
Up to date I Musici de Montreal has toured with concert-projection of the Pictures in the United States, Spain, Brazil, Canada and Colombia.
