About this Performance
Stravinsky’s revolutionary vision of primitive Russia caused a riot in its Paris premiere and changed music forever with its emphasis on the pulse-pounding power of rhythm. Through a succession of choreographed episodes, dancers will help illuminate this extraordinary composition that celebrates ancient rituals and the power and beauty of nature.
