Sascha GoetzelAbout
Respighi’s vibrant and superbly orchestrated ballet Belkis, Queen of Sheba depicts belkis at the court of King Solomon. The frenzied war dance, complete with Arab percussion, is an orchestral tour de force.
Hindemith visited Istanbul many times, and his Symphonic Metamorphoses on themes by Weber uses themes that Weber had composed for his incidental music to a play on the subject of Turandot, the Persian princess.
Florent Schmitt’s opulent late romantic ballet The Tragedy of Salome (1907) was praised by Stravinsky: ‘God, how fine it is! It is one of the greatest masterpieces of modern music’ - praise indeed from the composer of Firebird.
