2012.2013 Season
Montreal Symphony Orchestra: The Rite of Spring
Kent Nagano,
Conductor
Kent Nagano and the Montreal Symphony Orchestra present a programme that brings impressive surprises at every turn! It ranges from a witty Haydn symphony to a gleeful depiction of a Scottish celebration, and climaxes in The Rite of Spring, Stravinsky's earth-shaking portrait of prehistoric Russian rituals. This performance salutes Stravinsky's landmark work in the one-hundredth anniversary year of its scandal-igniting première in Paris.
