ballet Sheherazade & Persian march




ballet Sheherazade composed by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov in 1888. Based on one thousand and one nights.

 

Music is persian march by johann strauss. He composed it when Nasereddin shah, king of Iran visited Europe.

Persepolise music is composed based on persian march. It is subttler and in a way less of a march I think
