Musical Tales: Scheherazade

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Tony Robinson tells the story of Scheherazade against a back-drop of Rimsky-Korsakov's music. Scheherazade's new husband is a mad old king with the habit of marrying in the morning and chopping his wife's head off in the afternoon, but this one has a plan for survival.
