STRAVINSKY | The Rite of Spring
A spectacle of ancient pagan rituals, Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring put modernism on the map with its brutality, barbaric rhythms, and dissonance. Experience the flamboyant and suspenseful ballet score that drove an audience to riot at its debut in 1913. Benjamin Beilman brings his “handsome technique, burnished sound, and quiet confidence” (The New York Times) to Jennifer Higdon’s lyric and dazzlingly virtuosic violin concerto.
