Night on Bald Mountain-Mussorgsky (Photos of Mt Vesuvius)
Night on Bald Mountain showing photos of Mt Vesuvius, in Naples.
Night on Bald Mountain is a composition by the Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky that exists in at least two versions — a seldom performed 1867 version or a later (1886) and very popular 'fantasy for orchestra' arranged by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. This is the version used in the now-classic 1940 Walt Disney animated film Fantasia.
Inspired by Russian literary works and legend, Mussorgsky made a witches' sabbath the theme of the original tone poem, completed in 1867.
We're showing photos of Mount Vesuvius (Italian: Monte Vesuvio) which is a stratovolcano on the Bay of Naples, Italy, about 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) east of Naples and a short distance from the shore. It is the only volcano on the European mainland to have erupted within the last hundred years, although it is not currently erupting.
The two other major active volcanoes in Italy, Etna and Stromboli, are located on islands.
Mount Vesuvius is best known for its eruption in AD 79 that led to the burying and destruction of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. They were never rebuilt, although surviving townspeople and probably looters did undertake extensive salvage work after the destructions. The towns' locations were eventually forgotten until their accidental rediscovery in the 18th century.
