| Concertgebouw Brugge: Concert Hall, Bruges, 8000 Bruges, Belgium Friday 24-May-13 08:00pm Brussels Philharmonic: Le Sacre du Printemps At the request of the Concertgebouw, the Venezuelan-Canadian choreographer and dancer José Navas created a personal solo version of Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring. On the list of scandalous concerts, The Rite is joined by Bartók’s Miraculous Mandarin. The libretto of the latter disturbed its original audiences with its violence, and the musical setting also made this composition a classic example of expressionism. Nor was scandal absent from Ravel’s La Valse. The work was at the forefront of his feud with Diaghilev, who promptly rejected the work. | ||

| Southbank Centre: Royal Festival Hall, London, Belvedere Road, London SE1 8XX, United Kingdom Thursday 30-May-13 07:30pm Salonen conducts the Philharmonia Orchestra London Tonight’s programme marks the centenary (29 May 1913) of one of the most famous premieres in musical history: Stravinsky’s primitivist ballet The Rite of Spring. Showered throughout by a torrential hail of farmyard noises from the gallery, the whole thing ended in uproar with the young conductor, Pierre Monteux, and his musicians fleeing for their lives. Puccini, who was in the Paris audience that night, described it as ‘the creation of a madman.’ Yet Stravinsky claimed that he was merely ‘the vessel through which the Rite passed.’ Opening the concert is Debussy’s no less groundbreaking Prelude à l'après-midi d'un faune. ‘From that moment,’ wrote Pierre Boulez, ‘music began to beat with a new pulse’. | ||

| Sage: Hall One, Gateshead, Gateshead, United Kingdom Thursday 30-May-13 07:30pm Danse Concertantes “I feel certain it shall please” wrote Mozart upon finishing his Paris symphony after a series of frustrating false-starts in France. The new symphony did just that, brimming with an effervescence, hope and freshness that tuned directly in to the city’s love for the bold and gregarious. Saint-Saëns, Stravinsky and Prokofiev all lived in Paris after Mozart, their music never losing that elegance, élan and energy which its citizens so adore. | ||

| Sadler's Wells, London, Rosebery Avenue,, London EC1R 4TN, United Kingdom Saturday 8-Jun-13 07:30pm National Youth Dance Company & Riot Community Company — RIOT Offspring The Rite of Spring [Various] The last in the A String of Rites series, RIOT Offspring is a unique double bill which opens with the inaugural performance of the new National Youth Dance Company in a specially commissioned work from NYDC’s first Guest Artistic Director, Jasmin Vardimon, reflecting the spirit of this young, vibrant company of talented dancers drawn from across England.
Completing the programme is a powerful collaboration between four international choreographers – Sébastien Ramirez, Ivan Blackstock (BirdGang), Mafalda Deville and Pascal Merighi (guest artist, Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch) – and an intergenerational cast, brought together to create a unique dance piece with a live orchestra playing Igor Stravinsky’s iconic The Rite of Spring.
In 1913, the unfamiliar sounds of The Rite of Spring were enough to ignite rage and rioting in a passionate public. 100 years later, prompted by recent riots, the cast of RIOT Offspring explore their own perceptions of rites, rituals and riots, creating a powerful piece of dance theatre.Music by Stravinsky, Igor (1882-1971) Choreography by Sebastien Ramirez, Ivan Blackstock, Mafalda Deville, Pascal Merighi | ||
