Thanks. Rimsky-korsakov heard a HDCD from Reference Recordings of Scheherazade at Paul (Ps68)'s place, brilliant. London Symphony Orchestra

IMHO it's brilliant all the way up until Serebrier decides to race to the finish in the fourth movement - I was in heaven until then. I do love Scheherazade and probably have more versions of it than any other piece.

AQ is terrific, as with pretty much all the RR HDCDs.

Racing to the finish is also a hazard with Bolero. If I recall correctly, a review I read way back when stated that von Karajan's is one of the best, with a steady tempo to the end.
 
This is a very good discussion on the Pictures Symphony

 
Scheherazade on the 9th at Barbican. The acoustics there are supposed to be good. London Symphony Orchestra / Rafael Payare
