This week we are presenting an analysis of “The Young Prince and the Young Princess,” the third movement from Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade. This slow movement is characterized by a gentle melodic line decorated with abundant arabesques and colourful chromatic harmonies.

Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908)
Scheherazade, Op. 35: III. The Young Prince and the Young Princess
Recording: Valery Gergiev and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra
These videos are so artistic!👏👏
Wonderful analysis. I'd love you to tackle some of Joseph Marx's orchestral music (for example Idylle, symphonische Nachtmusik, Fest im Herbst or even Herbstsymphonie), wonderful, underappreciated and utterly underanalyzed, wonderfully orchestrated and harmonically complex music.
Thanks for the recommendation. We will look into it! MM
Pairing this wondrous music with the wonderful images from Lawrence of Arabia was a stroke of genius.
That is very kind of you! I love that movie so much.
@@-MomentsMusicaux- a friend tried to get me to watch it once and I was so tired I dozed off throughout all of it. For a few years now I’ve been itching to give it a real serious watch, which will practically be my first time. I’m excited for it.
However, it was unsatisfying to not be able to see the sheet music in the last section. I think there would be ablot to analyze there aswell
@@Alexander-oh8ry I think it's a good trade-off, and you can find the score on IMSLP.
I love this channel! A hidden gem for sure. You should do the third movement of Pines of Rome.
Great suggestion! Thanks for the support
