    Sheherazade (Scheherazade; Russian: Шехерезада), Op. 35, is a symphonic suite composed by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov in 1888. Based on The Book of One Thousand and One Nights, sometimes known as The Arabian Nights, this orchestral work combines two features common to Russian music and of Rimsky-Korsakov in particular: dazzling, colourful orchestration and an interest in the East, which figured greatly in the history of Imperial Russia, as well as orientalism in general. It is considered Rimsky-Korsakov's most popular work. The music was used in a ballet by Michel Fokine. This use of the music was denounced by the Rimsky-Korsakov estate, led by the composer's widow, Nadezhda Rimskaya-Korsakova.
    Review by James Leonard ~allmusic.com
    Recorded when the conductor was a 93 years old, Leopold Stokowski's 1975 recording of Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade with the Royal Philharmonic is still prime Stokowski. The instrumental colors are vivid and spectacular. The tone qualities are lush and ravishing. The long melodies are full and sensual. The formal shapes are strong and supple. Scheherazade is exactly the sort of piece at which Stokowski always excelled and his performance here is as effective as the best ever recorded.

    Recorded seven years earlier when the conductor was a sprightly 86, Stokowski's 1968 recording of Rimsky-Korsakov's Russian Easter Overture with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra is even better. All the same characteristics that informed his Scheherazade are present in his Russian Easter Overture, plus, with the muscular playing of the Chicago, the performance is more robust and vigorous. Both performances are fully competitive with the best and RCA's sound is as immediate as the best stereo sound. Anyone would enjoy them and Stokowski devotees will have to have them.

    Leopold Stokowski - conductor

    ~wikipedia.org
    Leopold Anthony Stokowski (April 18, 1882 – September 13, 1977) was a British-born, naturalised American orchestral conductor, well known for his free-hand performing style that spurned the traditional baton and for obtaining a characteristically sumptuous sound from many of the great orchestras he conducted.

    In America, Stokowski performed with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the NBC Symphony Orchestra, New York Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra, the Houston Symphony Orchestra, the Symphony of the Air and many others. He was also the founder of the All-American Youth Orchestra, the New York City Symphony, the Hollywood Bowl Symphony Orchestra and The American Symphony Orchestra. He conducted the music for and appeared in Disney's Fantasia and was a lifelong champion of contemporary composers, giving many premieres of new music during his 60-year conducting career. Stokowski, who made his official conducting debut in 1909, appeared in public for the last time in 1975 but continued making recordings until June 1977, a few months before his death at the age of 95.
