Scheherazade.2

Album by John Adams & Leila Josefowicz & Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra & David Robertson

Scheherazade.2 is a 2015 orchestral composition by American composer John Adams. Scored for solo violin and large orchestra, the work combines expansive, lyrical solo writing with propulsive rhythms and vivid orchestral colour, representing a later-career turn towards overtly narrative and theatrical orchestral statements in Adams's catalogue.
