Composition of a Sightseeing trip through modern and ancient UTRECHT - NL, and the movie "Le Concert", a 2009 film by Radu Mihaileanu with Mélanie Laurent and Miou-Miou, with here in this Youtube the music by Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky (also spelled Musorgsky, Moussorgsky Russian: Модест Петрович Мусоргский) (March 21 [O.S. March 9], 1839 March 28 [O.S. March 16], 1881), one of the Russian composers known as the Five, was an innovator of Russian music in the romantic period, later composed by Maurice Ravel.
Le Concert: A former world-famous leader of the Bolshoï, known as "The Maëstro", Andreï Filipov has seen his career publicly broken by Brejnev and now works as a cleaner. One day, he intercepts an official invitation from the prestigious Théâtre du Châtelet. He reunites his old orchestra, now composed of old alcoholic musicians, and flies to perform in Paris and complete the Tchaikovsky concerto interrupted 30 years earlier. The music work which has a central role in the film and is played during the final scene is the Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35 by Tchaikovsky.
Pictures at an Exhibition (Russian: Картинки с выставки Воспоминание о Викторе Гартмане, Kartinki s vystavki Vospominaniye o Viktore Gartmane, "Pictures from an Exhibition A Remembrance of Viktor Hartmann") is a famous suite in ten movements composed for piano by Modest Mussorgsky in 1874.
The suite is Mussorgsky's most famous piano composition, and has become a showpiece for virtuoso pianists. It has also become known through various orchestrations and arrangements produced by other musicians and composers (see: Arrangements and Interpretations, below, for further discussion), with Maurice Ravel's arrangement being the most recorded and performed.
Joseph-Maurice Ravel (March 7, 1875 December 28, 1937) was a French composer of Impressionist music known especially for his melodies, orchestral and instrumental textures and effects. Much of his piano music, chamber music, vocal music and orchestral music has entered the standard concert repertoire.
Ravel's piano compositions, such as Jeux d'eau, Miroirs and Gaspard de la Nuit, demand considerable virtuosity from the performer, and his orchestral music, including Daphnis et Chloé and his arrangement of Modest Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition, uses a variety of sound and instrumentation very effectively.
