The Rite of Spring

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky & New York Philharmonic & Alan Gilbert

The Rite of Spring is a ballet and orchestral work by Igor Stravinsky, premiered in 1913. The score is characterised by driving, irregular rhythms, dissonant harmonies and bold orchestration, and it marked a decisive shift towards musical modernism that influenced early 20th-century composition.
