1001 Nights! Scheherazade weaves her tales through Rimsky-Korsakov’s epic work of the same name. In true Inventi style, they take on the challenge of arranging this large scale work for small ensemble. Rich storytelling paired with incredible music, this concert weaves tale after tale from the story of 1001 nights including 3 brand new works based on more of these stories by Australian composers, Ella Macens, Caerwen Martin and Tristan Coehlo.
