Rimsky-Korsakov'un eserleri gerçekten klasik müziğin mücevherleri arasında yer alıyor. Onun melodileri, dinleyiciyi büyüleyen bir zenginlik ve derinlik taşıyor..Klasik müziğin bu eşsiz ustasını anmak ve dinlemek her zaman bir ayrıcalık.

[aykutyldrm-knfy]

Rimsky-Korsakov'un müziği, uzak diyarları çağrıştıran gür, sürükleyici melodilerden renk ve enerjiyle dolu karmaşık pasajlara kadar, zamansız güzellik ve duyguyla yankılanan harika bir koleksiyon

[AbobaLomoly-oy]

Как же я удивился русским словам XD (я и забыл, что слушаю, пока не дошёл до часа)
Спасибо за сборник.

[PawelDziubanski]

Absolutely wonderful ✨ Regards from Poland🇵🇱

[somebodysomewhere]

The addition of Festival at Baghdad, among others, makes it even better compared to the previous Rimsky-Korsakov playlist. Thank you.

To make this concert perfect, in the next playlist you should add Russian Easter Festival Overture: Overture on Liturgical Themes, Op. 36.

[AnahitaGarman]

I wish i could get all these beauties onto a cd set.

[Arturian.music.official]

Great compilation - the quirkiness of some of the compositions is genuinely appealing. A most enjoyable collection.
