Program Notes

Pictures at an Exhibition is one of the milestones for musicians. However, I think there are many situations in which it is necessary to make a big formation, and because of tricky odd time signatures and key signatures, there is no choice but to "do away but want to do it." This arrangement can be played in a variety of combinations, from a minimum of six players to a large formation. In addition, because the songs that are easy to match with the brass band are excerpted in a compact form, it does not put pressure on the concert performance time and can be used as it is for the competition. With this score, you can play Pictures at an Exhibition in most bands.

By all means, please play Pictures at an Exhibition only for you.
