Why Not Swan Lake, or, stupid data tricks

The other day Natan told me about an upcoming NYC Ballet production. A one act adaptation of Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake" along with a ballet set to Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition." He thought it would speak to me. Swan Lake for reasons we'll get to and the Mussorgsky because he already knows I really like the piece but also because this production highlights not the works of Viktor Hartmann as the piano suite is about but rather of Wassily Kandinsky.
