5 de mar. de 2024 · Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971) was a Russian composer best known for his works for the stage, such as the ballets The Firebird, Petrushka, and the groundbreaking The Rite of Spring. The modernist composer lived in Switzerland, France, and then the United States.
Igor Stravinsky, a towering composer of the twentieth century, was closely linked to dance. His early commissions for Serge Diaghilev's Ballets Russes—The Firebird, Petrouchka, and The Rite of Spring—put him on the international map and propelled both ballet and music into the modern age.
Pulcinella es un ballet cuya música fue compuesta por Ígor Stravinski. El ballet está basado en una obra de teatro del siglo XVIII en torno al personaje Pulcinella o Polichinela originario de la commedia dell'arte. La obra fue encargada por Serguéi Diáguilev.
Additionally, Stravinsky made a new concert suite from The Firebird and sold it to a London publisher in an attempt to regain copyright control over the ballet. Diaghilev continued to organize Ballets Russes shows across Europe, including two charity concerts for the Red Cross where Stravinsky made his conducting debut with The Firebird.
The plot is a natural for Stravinsky's sophisticated wit: Pulcinella, sought after by all the girls, is in danger of being killed by their boyfriends. Changing places with his double, who then only pretends to be slain, Pulcinella escapes harm.
Stravinsky revolutionised the world of ballet, taking its music in drastic new directions. Here's our guide to Stravinsky ballets.
