Selections from Pictures at an Exhibition for cello quartet by Modest Mussorgsky
Arranged by Blaise Dejardin. Published by Opus Cello.
Opus Cello specializes in high-quality cello arrangements, often for 2 or more cellos, from the classical repertory and beyond. Its music has been performed by the likes of Yo-Yo Ma, Gautier Capucon, Kian Soltani, Sol Gabetta, Frans Helmerson, and more, as well as the Boston Cello Quartet and cello sections of major orchestras from around the world. First spearheaded by Blaise Dejardin, principal cellist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, it has grown to feature arrangements by Aurelien Sabouret, Sebastien Walnier, Renaud Guieu, and James Barralet. These publications help to greatly expand the repertoire for avid cello ensembles and chamber groups.
Modest Mussorgsky’s masterpiece Pictures at an Exhibition is given a sparkling rendering in this excellent arrangement for four cellos by Blaise Dejardin for the Boston Cello Quartet. Includes parts and score. Master level, Grade 6.
