Rimsky-Korsakov - Scheherazade

Multimedia

Read

Listen

Storytelling and music have collaborated for generations. Guest conductor Robert Spano examines how music can amplify and enhance a plotline, with a discussion of Rimsky-Korsakov's passionate Scheherazade—a rhapsody for orchestra based on Tales from 1001 Nights. Learn how Rimsky-Korsakov created his exotic sounds, and just what a sinking ship sounds like in music. It's a grand romantic program to captivate your ears and imagination.
