SKY (re)DISCOVERED
THE RADICAL
IMAGINATION OF

IGOR STRAVINSKY

LOOMS AS LARGE IN THE 20TH
CENTURY AS BEETHOVEN’S
DID IN THE 19TH.
He is the musical Picasso of his
time, keeping one eye on a new
world and the other on tradition.
The BSO showcases six of his
masterworks, from his early
Russian folk-inflected ballets,
The Firebird and Petrushka, to
his reimagining of 18th century
classicism through later choral
and symphonic masterpieces.
