PICTURES FOR ETERNITY
It was almost half a century before Modest Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition became world famous. It was Maurice Ravel's dazzling orchestral version that made the piano cycle one of the most-performed concert works. It was created as a homage to the artist Viktor Hartmann. The death of his friend was a heavy blow for Mussorgsky. “I am comforted: he is no longer there, but his works still exist, in which he lives on,” he wrote to the curator of a memorial exhibition with drawings, architectural designs and stage sets by Hartmann – the very exhibition that the composer ultimately organized musically for the held on for eternity.

BILDER FÜR DIE EWIGKEIT
Es dauerte fast ein halbes Jahrhundert, bis Mo­dest Mussorgskis »Bilder einer Ausstellung« weltberühmt wurden. Erst Maurice Ravels schillernde Orchesterfassung machte den Klavierzyklus zu einem der meistgespielten Konzertwerke. Entstanden ist er als Hommage an den Künstler Viktor Hartmann. Für Mus­sorgski war der Tod des Freundes ein schwerer Schlag. »Man tröstet mich: Er sei nicht mehr da, aber seine Werke existieren noch, in denen lebe er weiter«, schrieb er dem Kurator einer Gedenkausstellung mit Zeichnungen, archi­tektonischen Entwürfen und Bühnenbildern Hartmanns – eben jene Ausstellung, die der Komponist schließlich musikalisch für die Ewigkeit festhielt.
