Rimsky-Korsakov named one of his greatest symphonic works after the narrator of what might be the greatest story ever told.
Lee Reynolds, who collaborated with Sinfonia Smith Square last year on Schoenberg’s gripping Erwartung, now leads the orchestra through an evening where each piece becomes a story. From the exotic allure of Scheherazade herself to the turbulent Restless Oceans and the heart-wrenching drama of Tristan und Isolde, passion, mystery, and emotion flow freely.
