A gnome hops around on his crooked legs, there is great excitement in the marketplace in Limoges, the witch Baba-Jaga eats the passing hikers in her hut in the forest. The Graz orchestra Recreation paints ingenious pictures of music.
They are always a highlight: Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition" in the classical orchestration by Maurice Ravel. Mei-Ann Chen, principal conductor of Recreation. Das Orchester is able to exploit the orchestra's fine tonal valeurs.
