[Edit]
The riot that broke out at the 1913 premiere of Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring" is often regarded as the inauguration of the modern age, an apt legacy for a ballet that represents human sacrifice as the cost of renewal. Such a significant work has of course been recorded many times, but never with this breath-taking mix of startling savagery and luxurious sonority, analytical insight and primitive passion. The program is rounded out by that luscious last gasp of 19th-century decadence, Scriabin's "Poem of Ecstasy," a powerful influence upon the composer's younger countryman, Stravinsky.
