Michiyoshi Inoue and New Japan Philharmonic have built a strong relationship of trust since his term as the orchestra's second Music Director from 1983 to 1988.
This album is a live recording from Sumida Triphony Hall in April 2021, and features a performance that gives a sense of their strong bond.
Munsu Choi 's clear violin tones sing the exotic theme of Princess Scheherazade, while the fantastically layered strings, delicate woodwinds, gorgeous brass, and rhythmic percussion blend together to weave the grand tale of One Thousand and One Nights.
