Scheherazade (Really Nice version)
You Tube ^ | 3/19/16 | Rimsky-Korsakov

This is one of my favorite Orchestral Music pieces of all time. I know every note of this.

I found this to be a particularly lovely version, and the camera work highlighting the members of the orchestra is nice too!

Just a little break from politics.

Wow! This one of the youngest orchestras that I have ever seen. Amazing!

Yes, they are very young. That may be a contributing factor to the incredible FRESHNESS they bring to this old Classic.

Enjoy! :-)

Since I know the score, I am having the most delightful time watching the fingers play the notes!

Look how many young ladies there are, some playing nontraditional instruments for girls (like the Double Bass).

I also like the two “modern” instruments, the tenor sax! Yikes...It’s WONDERFUL! :-)

My Pleasure.

I think we all need some of this during this turbulent election cycle.

A lovely piece. Unfortunately, while the music is playing I have The Man With One Red Shoe running in my mind. ;-)

Maybe I am lucky to have not seen that movie! LOL!

(Does it use this for the background score?)

I recommend the following classic performances:

1. Kondrashin/Concertgebouw, Philips
2. Reiner/Chicago, RCA
3. Beecham/Royal Philharmonic, EMI
4. Ansermet/L’Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Decca
5. Fedoseyev/USSR Radio & TV Symphony Orchestra, Melodiya

I have also heard about 25 other versions that are not as good as these.
