A fierce Sultan, a courageous storyteller and the tales of a thousand nights…Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade is a dream of an Orient that never was. Liszt wrote his Second Piano Concerto for his own lightining-fast fingers – fellow Hungarian Dezsö Ranki meets the challenge today. And our featureed composer Lili Boulanger weaves her own gorgeous visions, in three beautiful neglected masterworks. When Kazuki Yamada conducts them, every note will glow with colour – and love.
