Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov — Scheherazade: The Story of the Kalendar Prince

Click to expand...
One of my favourite pieces: very evocative, with muted tensions, mystique & heightening peril; can see her, in my mind, carefully reading the reactions as she tells her stories as her life depended on it! It’s one of those pieces of music that REALLY makes me see things in the eyes of my imagination! 🙄😛😎
 
Loved that!😛

Very reminiscent of that TV mini series back in 2000 “1001 Arabian Nights” where some of the most popular tales were shown as a backdrop to Scheherazade deciding to marry Prince despite his reputation of having already executed several brides already, surviving her 1st night by telling a tale & kept doing so night after night with some close calls when the Prince does almost executes her! Vanessa Mae even ended playing the Princess in the tale of Aladdin! Imagine living on tenderhooks for 1001 nights: that’s about 2 years & 9 months; incidentally the real actual tales are actually extremely sexually explicit a fact that a lot of people don’t realise as it’s watered down for a modern non Arabian/Ottoman audience!🙄😱
