Pétrouchka / Le Sacre du printemps

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky & The Cleveland Orchestra & Pierre Boulez

Pétrouchka / Le Sacre du printemps is a double‑bill album of orchestral works by Igor Stravinsky, composed in 1911 and 1913 respectively. They feature colourful, often unconventional orchestration, vigorous and irregular rhythms, and modal and dissonant harmonic language, reflecting Stravinsky's engagement with folk material and signalling a major shift in early 20th‑century orchestral modernism and in his own compositional development.
First released: 4th August 1992
