Stravinsky's Sacre du Printemps

Igor Stravinsky’s Le Sacre du Printemps is one of the most revolutionary works ever written. The unprecedented driving force of Stravinsky’s majestic sacrifice of spring continues to capture the imagination. The dance-like primal rhythm and emotional language of The Sacre have inspired countless composers. Within the framework of the TROMP Competition, masterpieces from the twentieth century are being brought back to life. Stravinsky’s Big Bang is accompanied by two kindred, ritualistic orchestral works. The atmospheric rainbow hues of Claude Debussy’s Pr.lude . l'après-midi d’un faune set an unheard-of dream world ablaze. An extraordinary percussion spectacle is unleashed in the meditative *From me flows what you call time* by Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu. Four percussionists, led by specialist Dominique Vleeshouwers, take on the challenge together with Philzuid.
