Petrushka

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky & Ural Philharmonic Orchestra & Dmitri Liss

Petrushka is a ballet by Russian composer Igor Stravinsky, first performed in 1911. Musically it juxtaposes folk-influenced melodies, brash orchestral colour, bitonal harmonies and irregular rhythms, and it represents a pivotal work in Stravinsky's early period as he moved away from late-Romantic conventions and contributed to early 20th-century musical modernism.
First released: 14th June 2024
