Rimsky-Korsakov is so amazing!

I'm listening to the second movement of Sheherazade at the moment. I thought the arrangement we played in band was good...but this is just amazing!

Mvmnt 1: The Sea and Sinbad's Ship
Mvmnt 2: The Tale of the Kalendar Prince
Mvmnt 3: The Young Prince and the Young Princess
Mvmnt 4: The Festival at Baghdad


I think that the whole piece is based upon the story "Arabian Nights", and has something to do with a Princess in the story called Sheherazade or something.
