Poster for series of piano concerts performed by Moscow Symphony Orchestra. The illustration was inspired by the poem of Boris Pasternak "Improvisation" where piano keys are compared to a flock of birds. Here is an extract from the poem, translated by Eugene Kayden
I fed out of my hand a flock of keys
To clapping of wings and shrill cries in flight.
Sleeves up. arms out, on tiptoe I rose;
At my elbow I felt the nudging of night.
