Sutanto B.M., The Boston Conservatory, 1995 M.M., Manhattan School of Music, 1997 Committee Chair: Prof. Frank Weinstock Abstract Vladimir Horowitz and Evgeny Kissin would certainly be included among the very few of the greatest pianists ever recorded. This document provides a detailed description of their interpretations of Modest Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition based on their recordings. The document begins with brief biographical information about Mussorgsky and Victor Hartmann, which is then followed by a historical background of Pictures. Brief biographies of Horowitz and Kissin are included as well. The concluding chapter discusses whether or not it is important for pianists to follow Mussorgsky’s original intentions regarding the suite. Is it necessary for pianists to make some changes or improvisations to the suite—eccentric playing? Will Pictures still sound good and interesting if pianists faithfully follow the score—academic playing? Pianists Frank Weinstock and Jason Kwak offer their opinions in answering these questions.

  • Lions' Monumental Season Makes History
    The Lion’s Tale December 3, 2010 Leo Junior/Senior High School Volume LIII Issue IX Lions’ monumental season makes history By Rachel Burtnett Editor-in-chief On Nov. 5, the Leo Lions varsity football team made history when they ventured to Eastbrook High School and defeated the Panthers, ranked first in the state of Indiana. This Sectionals victory is only the second in Leo Jr. /Sr. High School history. In the first game of sectionals at Norwell, Leo’s all-time leading rusher senior Connor Kacsor suffered a torn ACL. Junior Mike Shawd, his replacement, broke his leg during the next play. After losing two strong players, many could assume the confidence of the team would go down despite the strong school and community support, but the injured players stood and watched from the sidelines as their team made them proud. The Lions, ranked third in state, came out strong in the first half with a touchdown; an Eastbrook fumble recovered by the Lions led to yet another PHOTO BY RACHEL BURTNETT TD.
