Scheherazade / Capriccio Espagnol

Album by Nikolai Andreyevich Rimsky‐Korsakov & Orchestre symphonique de Montréal & Charles Dutoit

Scheherazade / Capriccio Espagnol is a pairing of orchestral works by Russian composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, composed in 1888 and 1887 respectively. Both pieces showcase Rimsky-Korsakov's orchestral colour and virtuosity, drawing on exoticism and nationalistic elements to create vibrant orchestral textures that occupy an important place in the late Romantic Russian repertoire.
