Bogatyr gates. In the table city in Kyiv. Mi-Bemol Major. The final part of the cycle is based on the sketch of Gartman to its architectural project of Kyiv city gates. On April 4 (16), 1866, Alexander II was made an unsuccessful attempt, which later officially called as “April 4”. In honor of the salvation of the emperor, a competition of gate projects in Kyiv was organized. The Hartmann project, filed for the competition, was made in the Old Russian style - the head with a ringlet in the form of a heroic helmet, a decoration above the gates in the form of a kokoshnik. The gate created the image of Kyiv as an ancient Russian capital. However, subsequently the competition was canceled, and projects submitted for participation were not implemented.

The play, created by the imagination of Mussorgsky, draws a detailed picture of the folk triumph and is perceived as a powerful opera ending. The instruction “Maestosto”, the slow rhythm with large durations give the play greatness and solemnity. At first, a wide Russian song melody sounds, then it is contrasted to a quiet and detached second theme resembling church singing. Further, the first theme enters with renewed vigor, with the addition of another voice - falling and rising “eighth” to the octave - and again passes, already loudly, into the second “chorament” theme. Soon she subsides, and - the second part of the play comes - the real bell ringed on the piano begins to be heard, first quieter and minor, then growing and turning into the major. Smaller bells are joined on a slow large bell, then - on even smaller eighth and in the upper register - small bells, and at the height of the chime, the theme of the “walk” is woven into their melody - the theme of the author, with which the cycle began - discovering his unity With the main theme of this play. Then, in the third part, a detailed variation on the topic of the first part sounds, and the “pictures” end with a grandiose code.

Some researchers note the architectural and symmetric construction of the plots of the plays: “along the edges” are the main topics (“walk” and “heroic gates”), followed by fabulous images (dwarf and woman-yaga), then “French” plots are closer to the center , followed by domestic sketches from Poland ("cattle" and "two Jews"), and in the center there is a joke - "Ballet of disadvantaged chicks."
