Scheherazade - 2nd movement

[bibibibi2009]

this part is amazing, i really love it, 

[688james]

Rimsky Korsakov is my best composer. His music is amazing. Scheherazade part 2 is my best part!

[terminaldeity]

This is my favorite classical piece!

[duesselalster]

it's a rehearsal...

great job. A lot of energy.

[jessyybee]

absolutely gorgeous playing, soloists! I'm an oboist - just searching for different recordings. this was wonderful

[rogdodge99]

Nice playing performance in all areas of the Tel-Aviv orchestra. Recording is too "hot." Not enough interpretation of crescendos and decrecendos. The conductor should have recognized.

Arabian nights

[chocolategurl921]

we performed the original version of this song for the south bend youth symphony about a month ago and ever I've bascially been obsessed with it. I just love the story line behind it.

[fonad2]

wow i wish i knew about that. i go to ND and i love this song. definitely would've gone to see that!

[chocolategurl921]

Oh Gosh, you should have! It was awesome. The soloists were AMAZING. It was just a powerful piece. I loved playing it.

[bigalex6393]

I love the Story of the Kalendar Prince! It's my favorite movement.

[kniffenkniffen]

I second that, this movement really gives me chills

[tchomon]

what s the name of this album? can i find it and where please?

[tchomon]

WHAT S NAME OF THIS ALBUM

[JBtheMountie]

The "album" is called Scheherazade composed by Nicolai Rimsky Korsakov. I'm sure you can find several CD's of various orchetras playing it. My personal favorite is the London Philharmonic version.

[bannan61]

Which LPO version? Who's conducting?

[JBtheMountie]

Serebrier from 1999 is the one I have. Very masterfully done with sweeping changes in tone and sound befitting the changing tales of Scheherazade herself.

[theothersideofme08]

this is really capturing

[NikolchaHacker]

cool

[DoctorMustafaSaad]

one of the charming callssics ever made..

[hohuba]

how can be a conductor so bored at this beginning???

[bannan61]

He's not bored but there's not a lot to do for the conductor here quite frankly. He's leaving the phrasing to the violin, bassoon and oboe soloists. The music can be left alone to "play itself" so to speak just the way Beecham used to do it. I recommend the old RPO/Beecham recording as still probably the best version. Magnetic conducting and fabulous solo playing throughout.

There is an old BBC radio show, called the Ghost Corp., that used for it's theme music this section starting at about the 35sec mark. Love hearing it thank you.

[TerenceAfer]

wonderful!thanks to share.

[KStrick92]

*sigh* Bassoon Solo

:)<3

[cjh37878]

She made a miserable squeaky error around

33-34.

[KinkyKAX]

isnt that part suppose to go to the cello thats how we played it after the first chair violin play

[Saxman3000]

No, it is a bassoon solo. I do not know what possessed your conductor to have a cello play it.

[gypsysisterlove4]

VERY BEAUTYFULL MUSIC!! I LOVE CLASSIC music!!

[jaskendall]

What happened to the big finale???!!! Such a shame to cut it off at the end like that when the rest of the performance was so good!

[liveforheaven]

veryy beautiful, awesome!

[sunsetlove16]

This movement is absolutely incredible. So moiving and passionate. ♥

[kayennke]

i like this melody

[kayennke]

very beautiful magnific

[znotch]

Yeah, fantastic, but the great finale is missing. And the attaque of the cymbals is not very clear. Cymbals are very important in this movement :-)

[cinnamonroffles]

My personal favorite movement of the whole piece, if only for the intro.

[norakiraly]

This is so charming.

It's like a fairy tale...

[helmsdeep84]

The Story of the Kalender Prince
