N. Rimsky-Korsakoff: Scheherazade, Opus 35.

Kalmus Miniature Orchestra Scores edition of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's symphonic suite Scheherazade, Opus 35, his most celebrated orchestral work. Octavo, number 82, original printed wrappers, illustrated with musical stanzas. From the library of Tony, Grammy, and Emmy Award-winning composer Charles Strouse and his wife, choreographer Barbara Siman, with Strouse's ownership stamp to the title page. Over his 50-year career, Charles Strouse wrote the music for such iconic musical theater hits as Bye Bye Birdie, Applause, and Annie, as well as the theme song for the classic sitcom All in the Family ("Those Were the Days"). His partnership with Martin Charnin on Annie produced one of Broadway's most successful scores ever, with "Tomorrow" and other songs from the production becoming enduring American musical standards admired by generations. His reach knew no genre or generation, from a number-one Billboard hit in 1958 to Jay-Z's Grammy-winning sampling of "It's the Hard-Knock Life" four decades later, and his honors include three Tony Awards and induction into both the Songwriters and Theater Halls of Fame. In very good condition with edgewear and rubbing to the wrappers and a publisher's defective-copy stamp to the inside front wrapper.
