1MELBOURNE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
Stravinsky Double Bill
In this remarkable performance, filmed live
at Hamer Hall in 2019, Sir Andrew Davis guides the orchestra through two of Stravinsky’s acclaimed works - one wiId, riot- inducingand revolutionary, the other a lyrical, little- known masterpiece. Le Sacre du printemps - known in English as The Rite of Spring - was one ofthe most groundbreakingworksofthe 20th century.
It was so radical in
its composition and presentation that its first performance descended into a riot.
The work was written for the 1913 Paris season ofSergei Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes company - the original choreography was by Vaslav Nijinsky.
It’sjoined in this double bill by Persephone, based on the myth ofa divine being who
is sacrificed and brought back to life as a symbol of springtime regeneration. Where to watch: www.youtube. com/watch?v=wtn2PvE4qdO
