   Extractions: Igor Stravinsky Russian/international composer who began two of the major strains of contemporary music. He studied with Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov , and his early works, like the Symphony No. 1 in E Flat , show the influence of that master. Almost immediately, however, he began to incline toward the music of the French impressionists Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel , while retaining his nationalist outlook. This resulted in such pieces as Fireworks The Faun and the Shepherdess , and the major ballet Firebird . It was not a simple matter of combining, however. A new musical element entered the mixclean orchestral textures, "bright" instrumentation, and an emphasis on stamping, irregular rhythmsheard especially in the Firebird 's "Infernal Dance of the King Katschei." Firebird 's success led to two more ballets for Diaghilev's Ballets russes: Petrouchka and Le Sacre du Printemps , both landmarks of twentieth-century music. The Russian element becomes less Romantic and more "objectified." By Le Sacre , the "infernal" element of Firebird had erupted into a previously-unheard, epic "barbarism," so much so that some of the audience rioted at the Paris premiere. The score became an icon of musical modernism and influenced many other modern giants, including

   Extractions: Igor Fedorovich Stravinsky was one of the greatest composers of the 20th century. The son of a famous bass singer at the Imperial Opera, Stravinsky showed little inclination to pursue a musical career until, while a law student, he began to study composition with Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Stravinsky was catapulted into the musical limelight with the composition of three ballets for the Ballets Russes de Serge Diaghilev in Paris: Firebird Petrushka (1911), and The Rite of Spring (1913). The latter work caused a celebrated scandal at its first performance and remains one of the best-known and most influential pieces of 20th-century music. During World War I, Stravinsky lived in Switzerland, and shortly afterward he settled in France. His creative association with Diaghilev continued until 1929 and included notable collaborations with Pablo Picasso and Leonid Massine ( Pulcinella , 1920), Jean Cocteau ( Oedipus Rex , 1927), and George Balanchine ( Apollon Musagete , 1928). In 1939 he moved to the United States.

   Extractions: Meanwhile Stravinsky had been stranded in Switzerland by the outbreak of hostilities. “It seems,” he had written to Andrei Rimsky-Korsakov in 1912 whilst working on The Rite of Spring, “as if not two but twenty years have passed since The Firebird was composed.” What must he have felt in August 1914? A mere five years earlier he had been an all but unknown Russian composer, living and working in his native St. Petersburg, a pupil of Rimsky-Korsakov, certainly, but with no major successes to his name. Though his music had been played – thanks to the good offices of his teacher – he had had no independent recognition until Serge Diaghilev heard two of his orchestral works in February 1909 and decided to commission some arrangements from him for the 1909 Paris season of the Ballets Russes. Not until the autumn did the crucial Firebird commission materialise. Soon afterwards Chester brought out the vocal score of Pulcinella (1919, but not the full score, which was still in composer’s hands when he signed his ERM contract in 1923), the Piano Rag Music (1919) and the Three Pieces for Clarinet (1918-19). The little piano pieces Les Cinq Doigts (1921) followed in 1922, and the Four Russian Songs (1918-19) in 1923, the year in which Les Noces was at last performed and published in full score. On the other hand Kling resisted the two radical works of 1920, the Concertino for string quartet (which went to Edition Wilhelm Hansen in Copenhagen, and so came back to Chester under the agency umbrella), and the Symphonies of Wind Instruments which, with its awkward instrumentation and forbidding yet no longer topical Russianism, remained unloved even by ERM, who spent fifteen years pretending to publish it before war once again put them out of their misery.

    Extractions: b. June 17, 1882, Oranienbaum, near St. Petersburg, Russia d. April 6, 1971, New York City Russian-born composer particularly renowned for such ballet scores as The Firebird (performed 1910) , Petrushka (1911), The Rite of Spring (1913) , and Orpheus (1947). Major works Stravinsky's father, Fyodor Ignatyevich Stravinsky, was a bass singer of great distinction, who had made a successful operatic career for himself, first at Kiev and later in St. Petersburg. Igor was the third of a family of four boys. As a child he loved music. He was accustomed to hearing his father practicing his operatic roles at home. From an early age he attended opera and ballet performances at the neighbouring Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg. Regular piano lessons started when he was nine, and a little later he received training in harmony and counterpoint. Despite his obvious bent for music, his parents refused to allow him to pursue a musical career. Sent to St. Petersburg University to study criminal law and legal philosophy, he was graduated in 1905. Meanwhile, his musical interests had turned to composition. In the summer of 1902, a few months before his father's death, he obtained an introduction to the Russian composer Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov through one of Rimsky-Korsakov's sons, who was also a student at the university. Rimsky-Korsakov was sufficiently interested in the young man's early attempts at composition to advise him not to enter the conservatory for academic training but to pursue his studies privately. This advice was followed. A year later Rimsky-Korsakov agreed to tutor him privately, mainly in instrumentation. The arrangement continued for about three years (1903-1906). It was Stravinsky's habit to discuss his compositions with his mentor as they were planned and written. Rimsky-Korsakov arranged for several of these, including the

    Extractions: Russian composer, later of French (1934) and American (1945) nationality. The son of a leading bass at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, he studied with Rimsky-Korsakov (1902-8), who was an influence on his early music, though so were Tchaikovsky , Borodin, Glazunov and (from 1907-8) Debussy and Dukas. This colourful mixture of sources lies behind The Firebird (1910), commissioned by Dyagilev for his Ballets Russes. Stravinsky went with the company to Paris in 1910 and spent much of his time in France from then onwards, continuing his association with Dyagilev in Petrushka (1911) and The Rite of Spring These scores show an extraordinary development. Both use folktunes, but not in any symphonic manner: Stravinsky's forms are additive rather than symphonic, created from placing blocks of material together without disguising the joins. The binding energy is much more rhythmic than harmonic, and the driving pulsations of The Rite marked a crucial change in the nature of Western music. Stravinsky, however, left it to others to use that change in the most obvious manner. He himself, after completing his Chinese opera

My first exposure to the music of Stravinsky was in Walt Disney's Fantasia where dinosaurs marched to the sounds of The Rite of Spring .
