Stravinsky - La Sacre Du Printemps - Box set - 20 CDs
The Spring Festival (original French title Le Sacre du printemps, in Russian Весна священная) is a ballet with music by the Russian composer Igor 'Fëdorovič Stravinsky.
The opera was written between 1911 and 1913 for Sergej Djagilev's company of Russian Ballets; the original choreography was by Vaclav Nizinsky, the sets and costumes by Nikolaj Konstantinovič Roerich.
The first performance, which took place in Paris at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées on May 29, 1913, marked a fundamental moment not only in the career of its author, but also for the history of musical theater.
The extraordinary innovation of the music, the choreography and the subject itself created a huge scandal and, despite subsequent skirmishes between enthusiastic admirers and bitter detractors, the work was destined to remain a milestone in 20th-century musical literature.
