March Musician of the Month

This month's Musician of the Month is Igor Stravinsky. 


Igor Stravinsky was a Russian composer, pianist and conductor.
Stravinsky was born on 17 June 1882
He was raised in St. Petersburg by his father, a bass singer named Fyodor, and his mother, Anna, a talented pianist.
He is widely considered one of the most important and influential composers of the 20th century.
Stravinsky's compositional career was notable for its stylistic diversity.
Three of his best known works were The Firebird (1910), Petrushka (1911) and The Rite of Spring (1913).


Below you can find two videos of Stravinsky's "Firebird Suite." The first video is Stravinsky himself conducting the piece and the second video is Disney's adaptation for the movie Fantasia.


Last, here is a short video from the ballet that was so new and strange-sounding that it cause a riot at its first performance.
