Tableaux d’une exposition
Nicola Cittadin – Orgel, organ, orgue
(Merklin Organ of the Offene Kirche St. Elisabeth, Basel / orgue Merklin de l’église Sainte-Élisabeth de Bâle)
Philip Tarr – Percussion
Tatiana Cossi — Horn, cor [16]
Edward H. Tarr — „Romantische” Trompete, “Romantic” trumpet, trompette « romantique » [17]
That Pictures at an Exhibition is a masterwork of cultural history can be seen from the countless new versions of Modest Mussorgsky’s brilliant solo piano piece. The interpretations of Pictures range from Maurice Ravel’s symphonic fireworks to the progressive rock, synthesizer, and chamber-jazz versions of the past forty years.
Nicola Cittadin and Philip Tarr now offer their new version, played on the organ of the St. Elizabeth’s Church in Basel and on percussion instruments, such as Baroque timpani, side drums, cymbals, and triangle, as a promenade from the Cossacks to Kiev, from Modest to Miles Davis.
