In our season of storytelling our final symphonic concert brings some of the greatest music storytelling ever — Nicolai Rimsky Korsakov’s epic work, Scheherazade. Four of the tales from the celebrated Arabian Nights are brilliantly recast in music of unmatched color and power. As the story goes, furious at his wife’s infidelity, the Sultan decides to take a new wife every day, only to have her killed the next morning. He did not reckon coming across the will of the beautiful Scheherazade.

1001 Nights – How Scheherazade Kept Her Head

The Palace Theatre

The British composer Edward Elgar said “There is music in the air, music all around us, the world is full of it and you simply take as much as you require.” Composers can find the inspiration for their creativity from many different sources, including other composers. This concert pairs three composers with their composer muses.
