L'Histoire du Soldat

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky & Madeleine Milhaud & Jean‐Pierre Aumont & Martial Singher

L'Histoire du Soldat is a theatrical work by Igor Stravinsky, composed in 1918. Scored for a small chamber ensemble with a narrator, it blends neoclassical techniques, dance- and folk-derived motifs with sharp rhythmic gestures and jazz-influenced harmonies, representing a turn in Stravinsky's output toward more economical forces and theatrical collaboration.
