Petrushka / Pulcinella Suite

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky & New York Philharmonic & Leonard Bernstein

Petrushka / Pulcinella Suite is an album of orchestral works by Igor Stravinsky, comprising pieces originally composed in 1911 and 1920–22. The music ranges from the visceral, rhythmically driven textures and colourful orchestration of his Russian-period ballet to the leaner, classically inflected textures of his neoclassical phase, illustrating a key transition in his compositional approach and its impact on 20th-century music.
