Pictures at an Exhibition (DVD)
To accompany his performance of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition, concert organist Martin Setchell invited New Zealand's leading colourist, Philip Trusttum, to create a corresponding series of paintings. The resulting collaboration performance of Pictures at an Exhibition was first given at the Christchurch Town Hall on May 31, 2003.
Now you can relive that magical evening through DVD or Video. Hear Mussorgsky’s colourful music on the mighty Rieger organ while absorbing Trusttum’s compelling interpretations of each picture. Also see close-ups of the organist in action, and rare footage of the interior of the organ.
The concert: “A bravura performance of an arrangement
for solo organ of Mussorgsky’s
Pictures at an Exhibition . . . an incredible palette of sound colours
from the Rieger organ.” -
The Press
The DVD: "This DVD comes highly recommended: for those who were at the concert, it brings back a great memory; for those who missed it, now's your chance to see and hear two superb artists at the top of their game. " - Patrick Shepherd, The Press.
