Programme
Concert lasts around 90 minutes, without intermission.
This concert will explore how Russian folklore influenced Stravinsky’s choice of subject matter — an entertaining look at how Russian tales are rich with myth and fables. It will feature Stravinsky’s three exceptional pieces of ballet music: the dazzling Firebird, the magical Petrushka and the revolutionary Rite of Spring.
Due to an overwhelming response, registration quota is full. Thank you for your support to the Swire Classic Insights!
