Shéhérazade, Suite sinfonica op. 35

Shéhérazade, Op. 35 is a symphonic suite by Russian composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, composed in 1888. The work, written in the late-Romantic Russian nationalist tradition, is notable for its vivid, colourful orchestration, sinuous melodic lines, use of exotic modes and shifting metres that create contrasting, scene-like episodes within the suite.
