RAVEL Alborada del Gracioso PROKOFIEV Sinfonia Concertante RIMSKY-KORSAKOV Scheherazade
Rimsky-Korsakov set to music the marvelous tales of intrigue and adventure told by the beautiful Scheherazade, resulting in a four-movement narrative of scenes from the Arabian Nights. Renowned German cellist Daniel Müller-Schott is the star in Prokofiev’s fiendishly difficult Sinfonia Concertante, dubbed “the Mt. Everest of the virtuoso cellist’s repertory”. Ravel’s Alborada del Gracioso, originally a piano work, turns up inthe composer’s own orchestration. Ages: Children below the age of 8 shall not be admitted.
