Description

Igor Stravinsky’s musical setting of the Slavic fable The Firebird is one of the most ground-breaking orchestral works of the early 20th century. The reviews of the world premiere of the ballet at the Théâtre National de l’Opéra in Paris lauded Stravinsky’s ‘dazzling music in all shades of colour’; as a consequence, he composed two orchestral suites of his ballet. The version of 1919 is now published as a new edition with a modern notation and new orchestral material.
