Modest Mussorgsky, geboren in 1839 in Karevo, Rusland, was een pionier van de Russische muziek in de romantische periode. Als lid van de beroemde groep "The Five" streefde hij ernaar een uniek Russisch muzikaal identiteit te creëren, vaak in opstand tegen de conventies van de Westerse muziek. Zijn meest bekende werken, zoals de opera "Boris Godunov," het orkeststuk "Nacht op de Kale Berg" en het pianowerk "Beelden van een Tentoonstelling," tonen zijn diepgaande verbondenheid met Russische geschiedenis en folklore. Hoewel zijn talent tijdens zijn leven niet volledig werd gewaardeerd, wordt Mussorgsky nu beschouwd als een briljante en invloedrijke componist. Zijn muzikale ideeën leven voort in theaters en concertzalen over de hele wereld, en zijn werken blijven inspireren en betoveren.
