Rite of Spring from Denmark

Ian Skelly begins a week of music from Denmark and Sweden with the Danish National Symphony Orchestra performing Stravinsky's Rite of Spring.

Ian Skelly introduces an afternoon of recordings from around Europe.

Throughout this week, Ian is featuring ensembles and artists from Denmark and Sweden. The week begins with a performance of Stravinsky's ground-breaking ballet score The Rite of Spring, featuring the Danish National Symphony Orchestra under the baton of rising star Stanislav Kochanovsky. The same orchestra and conductor performs Debussy's Pr茅lude 脿 l'apr猫s-midi d'un faune, composed almost twenty years before Stravinsky's ballet, and in its own way just as revolutionary. Ian also has music from the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra, including Beethoven's Eighth Symphony with Paavo J盲rvi conducting. And there's rare German choral music from the 1500s, courtesy of the vocal ensemble Singer Pur.
