Washington,  D.C., pianist Jeffrey Chappell returns for a unique concert to perform  Modest Mussorgsky's masterpiece "Pictures at an Exhibition" for solo piano.

For this multimedia concert, students from Montpelier's Main Street  Middle School, East Montpelier Elementary School, Rumney Elementary  School in Middlesex, and Berlin Elementary School have created artwork  that will be projected over the stage during the performances of  Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition.

Flutist Karen Kevra will join Chappell in a work by Charles Koechlin,  featuring fourteen images from legendary National Geographic  photographer James Blair's collection "Our Threatened Inheritance". His  photographs are represented in the permanent collections of the National  Portrait Gallery in Washington DC, the Museum of Modern Art in New York  City, the Portland Museum of Art (Maine) and the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh.
