About

RNCM students and members of the KNDS Fairey Band unite for a spectacular side-by-side performance.

The centrepiece of this event is Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition. Inspired by 10 of Victor Hartmann’s watercolours and drawings, Mussorgsky’s musical brushstrokes create vivid soundscapes, each reflecting one of the artworks. Animated visuals accompanying the performance further bring the collaboration to life, capturing the striking synthesis of art and music.
