Description

‘The Rite of Spring’ by Igor Stravinsky is the piece that jolted classical music into the Twentieth Century. It’s a ballet and its central theme is a human sacrifice. There’s bombastic outbursts, pounding rhythms, and a driving intensity. In this episode I share insights into the piece, I discuss orchestral virtuosity and we discover music from ballet.


This episode features the ‘Sacrificial Dance’ from ‘The Rite of Spring’ composed by Igor Stravinsky. I recommend the recording by The Philadelphia Orchestra, conducted by Yannick Nézet-Séguin
