Capriccio Espagnol, Op. 34 / Russian Easter Festival Overture, Op. 36 / Scheherazade, Op. 35

Album by Nikolai Andreyevich Rimsky‐Korsakov & Vasily Petrenko & Oslo‐Filharmonien

This release is a collection of orchestral works by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov composed in 1887-1888. They showcase late-Romantic Russian orchestration marked by vivid orchestral colour, folk-influenced melodies, modal and chromatic harmonies, and cyclical thematic writing that reflects a pivotal phase in Rimsky-Korsakov's development as an orchestrator and his influence on subsequent orchestral practice.
