In a Persian Market is a piece of light classical music for orchestra with optional chorus by Albert Ketèlbey who composed it in 1920.
A synopsis of scenes by the composer mentions a caravan arriving, beggars, a princess carried by servants, jugglers, snake-charmers, and a caliph.
[2] An opening march shares "exotic" intervals, A – B-flat – E, with the composer's oriental intermezzo Wonga, used for the play Ye Gods in 1916.
The work has been used as theatre music for comic oriental scenes,[6] used in sketches by Morecambe and Wise, and by The Two Ronnies,[4] and also in schools as theatrical repertory.
[2] Also music was used in "My Lady Heroine" by French singer Serge Gainsbourg.
