Scheherazade / Russean Easter Overture
Album by Nikolai Andreyevich Rimsky‐Korsakov & Atlanta Symphony Orchestra & Robert Spano
This release is an orchestral recording pairing two works by Николай Андреевич Римский‐Корсаков, both composed in 1888. The music showcases late-Romantic Russian orchestration through colourful instrumental textures, programme-driven structures and contrasting liturgical and oriental-inspired sonorities, reflecting the composer's mature style and his contribution to the national orchestral repertoire.
