Musorgsky - Composers Across Cultures
Brown, David (, Retired, Emeritus Professor of Musicology, University of Southampton, UK)
This is the largest life-and-works of Musorgsky ever to have appeared outside Russia. Musorgsky created stunning masterpieces in such creations as his opera Boris Godunov and piano suite Pictures at an Exhibition - yet his life was tragic. It is this pathetic tale, interlaced with critical discussion of music, that is this book's concern.
