Oedipus Rex

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky

Oedipus Rex is an opera-oratorio by Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky, composed and premiered in 1927. The work employs neoclassical structures, austere, rhythmically driven orchestration and declamatory vocal writing within an oratorio-like form, and it occupies a central place in Stravinsky's neoclassical period as an experiment in melding ancient dramatic narrative with modernist musical language.
