The Old Castle

My favorite movement from Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition. A truly incredible find for four reasons:

1. This arrangement for recorders is really cool.

2. It comes ready-made in an arrangement that works reasonably well for singers to teach them how to sing complex, but not too complex, harmonies.

3. I like the idea of doing something from Pictures at an Exhibition for chorus. Every other kind of group has done it.

4. Did I mention it's really cool?
