The Firebird (complete ballet)

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky & London Symphony Orchestra & Antal Doráti

The Firebird (Complete Ballet) is the complete ballet score by Russian composer Igor Stravinsky, composed and premiered in 1910. The work blends late-Romantic orchestration with folk-inspired motifs, bold rhythmic figures and adventurous harmonies, and it represented a turning point in Stravinsky's career as he established himself internationally as a composer of ballet in the early 20th century.
First released: March 1960
