Please listen to Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition which he composed for solo piano (Links to an external
site.) and then listen to Ravel’s arrangement of the same piece for orchestra (Links to an external site.).
Listen carefully for the techniques that Ravel has used in order to create new colors and timbres and point out
at least 2 interesting moments in 3 pieces and write two or three sentences describing Ravel’s decisions and
why you find them interesting or successful.
