Pictures at an Exhibition
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but music can paint what has never been imagined. Let your ears be your eyes with the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
In the dark heart of a continent on the brink of war, a violin catches fire. Three robed priests vent their pain and rage in molten, tactile paint. And a hut on hen’s legs flies through a fairytale forest.
Tonight, Edward Gardner is the curator of a sonic picture gallery, presenting powerful 20th-century masterpieces by Mark-Anthony Turnage and Bartók alongside Mussorgsky’s multicoloured, hugely popular Pictures at an Exhibition.
Hear them come to life yourself.

- Mark-Anthony Turnage: Three Screaming Popes
