About the album

Brussels Philharmonic Recordings released its fourth CD in January 2013: after Debussy, Dvořák and Tchaikovsky, it is now, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the thrilling première of the ‘Sacre du Printemps‘, Stravinsky’s turn.
For the first time here, the Brussels Philharmonic is issuing a live recording of a 2009 performance at the Cité de la Musique in Paris.
The première of the ‘Rite of Spring’ (Le Sacre du Printemps) on 28 May 1913 at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in Paris caused a scandal that has since become a legend.
The live recording of the concert shows the commitment of the musician, whose work and indeed entire life is focused on that one moment. And not to mention the stimulus added by the interaction with a live audience.
Erinnerung an die Uraufführung des Sacre vor 100 Jahren mit den grandiosen Brüsseler Philharmonikern.

Die vierte CD-Veröffentlichung der Brüsseler Philharmoniker erinnert an die skandalträchtige Uraufführung von Strawinskys Sacre du Printemps am 29.Mai 1913. Tumultartige Proteste begleiteten sämtliche Aufführungen der ersten Woche und brachten dennoch Strawinsky die bislang verweigerte Popularität in Paris. Mittlerweile gehört das mächtige Werk zu den bedeutendsten Balletten des 20. Jahrhunderts. Das Brussels Philharmonic ist zu hören in einer Live-Aufnahme aus dem Jahr 2009. "Le chant du rossignol" wurde 2010 und 2011 im Studio aufgenommen und ergänzt diese Jubiläums-Aufnahme.
Ripresentata insolitamente a distanza di un mese, questa edizione della Sagra della Primaver spicca nel novero delle registrazioni degli ultimi anni sia per l'appassionata direzione di Tabachnik sia per la resa sonora assolutemente superba - garantita sia dagli orchestrali sia dai tecnici della Bruxelles Philharmonic Recording.

“The world needs symphonic music.  And symphonic music needs the world.” That is the firm belief of the Brussels Philharmonic. As a symphony orchestra founded in 1935 under the auspices of the Belgian public broadcaster, unveiling the symphonic world as best we can is deep in our DNA. By innovating while maintaining full respect for the value of the past, we keep the symphonic music of the past, present and future relevant and inspiring – for ourselves and all of society. We do this from the historic Studio 4 at Flagey in Brussels, together with our music director Kazushi Ono: he shares our open and adventurous spirit and our rock-solid belief in the need for cross-fertilization between art, life and society.

Igor Stravinsky

Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky was a Russian composer, pianist, and conductor. 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. He first achieved international fame with three ballets commissioned by the impresario Sergei Diaghilev and first performed in Paris by Diaghilev's Ballets Russes: The Firebird (1910), Petrushka (1911) and The Rite of Spring (1913). The last of these transformed the way in which subsequent composers thought about rhythmic structure and was largely responsible for Stravinsky's enduring reputation as a musical revolutionary who pushed the boundaries of musical design. His 'Russian phase' which continued with works such as Renard, The Soldier's Tale and Les Noces, was followed...

His "Russian phase" which continued with works such as Renard, The Soldier's Tale and Les Noces, was followed in the 1920s by a period in which he turned to neoclassical music. The works from this period tended to make use of traditional musical forms (concerto grosso, fugue and symphony), drawing on earlier styles, especially from the 18th century. This style was often referred to as Neoclassicism. In the 1950s, Stravinsky adopted serial procedures. His compositions of this period shared traits with examples of his earlier output: rhythmic energy, the construction of extended melodic ideas out of a few two- or three-note cells and clarity of form, and of instrumentation.
