THIS EVENT IS PART OF PERTH FESTIVAL OF THE ARTS
One of the world’s finest brass bands, WFEL Fairey Band presents a spectacular concert of music and animation, performing a brass band arrangement of Pictures at an Exhibition to accompany animated interpretations of Mussorgsky’s masterpiece.
The animations, created by Ion Concert Media with USC School of Cinematic Arts in Los Angeles, use Mussorgsky’s musical response to Hartmann’s visual images – paintings, drawings and designs – to produce an immersive creative experience of rich fantasy, whimsy and adventure.
This will be its first screening in Europe. Take an imaginary stroll through the picture gallery, while enjoying other brass band works in this one-hour Perth Festival of the Arts Closing Concert.
