100 years of the Rite of Spring
Classical, telluric, shamanic, revolutionary ?
Since the 29th of May 1913, day of the first performance for the Théâtre des Champs Elisées opening ceremony, The Rite of Spring captived all of us.
It was a memorable scandal, removed after only 8 performances.
Igor Stravinski’s music, which initially sparked controversy, is finally recognized as a masterpiece. Numerous choreographical adaptations were created (about 200 !) since 100 years. Vaclav Nijinski’s choreography was lost and recreated in 1987 by Millicent Hodson et Kenneth Archer.
We propose in this focus different version of "The rite of Spring" from our catalog.
