The Life of Musorgsky (Musical Lives) Book

This is a brief biography of Russia's greatest musical dramatist, Modest Musorgsky (1839 1881), known the world over for his opera BORIS Godunov, for his innovative realistic art songs, and for his pianistic work Pictures at an Exhibition. Yet during his life Musorgsky had no institutional connections, no 'degree', no family of his own, not even a permanent address. This book emphasises the psychological and economic factors that contributed to the composer's remarkable autodidactic rise and tragic, premature end.Read More
