Sheherazade / Capriccio Espagnol

Album by Nikolai Andreyevich Rimsky‐Korsakov & Slovenská filharmónia & Bystrík Režucha

Sheherazade / Capriccio Espagnol is a classical orchestral album of works by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, composed in 1888 and 1887 respectively. They are marked by rich orchestration, modal and folk-influenced melodies, and rhythmic energy that evoke narrative and Spanish-inspired scenes, and they are important in Rimsky-Korsakov's development as an orchestral colourist.
