Later Ballets: Jeu de cartes / Danses concertantes / Scènes de ballet

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky & Philharmonia Orchestra & London Philharmonic Orchestra & The Twentieth Century Classics Ensemble & Orchestra of St. Luke’s & Robert Craft

Later Ballets is a compilation album of later ballet works by Igor Stravinsky, drawn from pieces composed between 1936 and 1944. These works exemplify his neoclassical approach, characterised by clear textures, incisive rhythmic patterns and a move towards smaller-scale, dance-driven forms that mark a shift in his mid-to-late career.
