Blending visual art and music, PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION shares an innovative, multi-media performance of Modest Mussorgsky/Maurice Ravel's "Pictures at an Exhibition." Russian composer Mussorgsky's original 1874 piano suite was inspired by an exhibition of work by his friend and artist Victor Hartmann. In 1921, French composer Ravel produced an orchestration of "Pictures at an Exhibition," which has become a staple of the symphonic repertoire. Now, in PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION, Gerard Schwarz, music director of the Frost Symphony Orchestra, and Jill Deupi, Beaux Arts director and chief curator of the Lowe Art Museum at the University of Miami, have combined their talents to produce a unique tribute to the history of the composition and its origins. Deupi worked with several artists who created works to accompany specific parts of the 10-movement composition plus its five promenades. In addition, she selected other works of art to correlate and connect to the mood of the various movements. Viewers experience a full performance of the composition by the Frost Symphony Orchestra, accompanied by an "exhibition" of these new selected artworks, presented in a virtual-reality museum gallery. Before the performance of "Pictures at an Exhibition," Schwarz compares the original Mussorgsky piano piece and Ravel's orchestration with the help of the Frost Symphony Orchestra and a student pianist. Deupi also discusses the decisions behind the art pieces selected.

In the 1950's, survival rates from cancer of any kind were low. Damaging surgery and unsophisticated radiotherapy were the main treatments, assuming the disease was detected in time for anything to be done. Cervical cancer was often asymptomatic until it was well advanced, and by that time, it was often a death sentence. This dramatic story of the fight against cervical cancer revolves around three main characters: Dr. Papanicolaou, a Greek immigrant whose single-minded pursuit of the development of a diagnostic test saved hundreds of thousands of women; Hashime Murayama, the exquisitely talented artist who became National Geographic's first inhouse illustrator, but because of his Japanese heritage, was fired, interned in a WWII camp, then released to work on the project; and Helen Dickens, a groundbreaking Black female surgeon, who overcame deep distrust between the Black community and medical professionals to save the lives of thousands of women. The work of these three true life savers slashed death rates of this previously unfightable cancer by more than 60 percent.
