Pictures at an Exhibition (Mussorgsky/Ravel) [4 - 4]

Cuadros en una Exposicion
Pictures at an Exhibition
Composed by Modest Mussorgsky
Orchestrated by Maurice Ravel in 1927
Performed: Festival Casals 2005
Giancarlo Guerrero, Conductor
Puerto Rico Symphony Orchestra
Casals Festival (March 2005)
Antonio Paoli Hall
Centro de Bellas Artes Luis A. Ferre
Note:
An audio signal from an FM station is heard sometimes on quiet passages. This problem persisted ONLY on the Casals Festival coming from the Luis A. Ferre Main Hall. It lasted a couple of years. This concert included historic and stunning Yo Yo Ma performances. I decided to include this work (and the Enesco) to let Giancarlo Guerrero demonstrate his conducting abilities.

The ending literally gave me goosebumps. It's that good.

Giancarlo Guerrero did a magnificant job. He memorized the score, and that is a good start. The Dudamel version done in Salzberg is the best ever. This orchestra needs more practice, Check out the SBYO.
