Stravinsky Rite of Spring: Part 2, The Sacrifice

This week, on Part 2 of our exploration of the most important piece of the 20th century, we'll go through the narrative section of the Rite of Spring, beginning with the introduction and taking us to the sacrifice of the young girl and the beginning of spring. There is no piece of Western Classical Music that was more influential to 20th and 21st century music than this one, and during the show we'll explore all the reasons why, as well as looking in detail at this mind-blowingly revolutionary score.
