Anton Arensky - Egyptian Nights suitably exotic
If you only know Arensky through his "Tchaikovsky Variations" or his first Piano Trio, give this a listen. You might be pleasantly surprised.

If you enjoy late-Romantic chamber music, you should give this a listen. This is exceptional music by a truly talented composer.
