QPO Presents: Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade

March 31, 2026 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM Katara Cultural Village, Opera House

Under the baton of Elias Grandy, QPO performs Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade, a vivid symphonic journey inspired by One Thousand and One Nights. Across four scenes, the orchestra conjures sweeping seas, glittering courts, and bold adventure, all held together by the work’s iconic violin solo, Scheherazade’s voice, led by Concertmaster Joo Young Oh.

Joining the performance are Taoufik Mirkhan on qanun and Rania Shehab as narrator, adding an extra layer of atmosphere to this journey through myth and imagination.

A special surprise will be included as part of the evening.
