The Rite of Spring

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky & Antal Doráti & Minnesota Orchestra

The Rite of Spring is a ballet and orchestral work by Russian composer Igor Stravinsky, premiered in 1913. Its score features driving, irregular rhythms, dissonant harmonies and bold orchestration that broke with late-Romantic conventions, signalling a major stylistic shift in Stravinsky's output and influencing the development of modernist music in the early 20th century.
