A cruel sultan, a beautiful princess and a thousand and one nights of pleasure: Rimsky-Korsakov’s Shéhérazade might sound like a box of Turkish delight, but make no mistake: it’s one of classical music’s wickedest treats. So let Vasily Petrenko sweep you away to a world of sensuous excess, from the Spanish perfumes of Manuel de Falla’s Three Cornered Hat to the Spanish rhythms of the famous Rodrigo Guitar concerto.
