Mussorgsky Night on a Bare Mountain (Rimsky Korsakov version) ![]()
This collection of orchestral showstoppers kickstarts with Rimsky-Korsakov’s version of Mussorgsky’s mellifluous Night on Bare Mountain (as featured in Walt Disney’s Fantasia). After Barber’s famously heartfelt Adagio we continue with Dukas’ scintillatingly virtuosic Sorcerer’s Apprentice and Rimsky-Korsakov’s dazzling and sensuous Scheherazade, based on the Arabian legend of One Thousand and One Nights. Tchaikovsky’s catchy Capriccio Italien concludes, using tunes Tchaikovsky swiped from street performers in Rome.
