A review for '1001 Nights'


Kind remarks for my recently published e-book came today from David Daniels, author of Orchestral Music.

An engrossing retelling of this familiar backstory of The Arabian Nights, entirely suitable as preparation for listening to Rimsky-Korsakov’s celebrated orchestral tone-poem, Sheherazade (an alternative spelling of the protagonists name).

I appreciate Dr Daniels’s appreciation, naturally, and hope you will consider giving Shahrazad’s latest incarnation a kind look yourself.
