63 years ago today, September 21, 1962 (August 23, 1962 in the lunar calendar), Igor Stravinsky returned to the Soviet Union. On September 21, 1962, the hero who returned triumphantly was old and frail, waving a baton rather than a weapon. After a 48-year absence from the Soviet Union, Igor Stravinsky has returned to his homeland. The Soviet government has invited him to conduct two concerts in Moscow. He will conduct the second part of the "Orpheus" ballet program. The first movement is "The Style of Spring". Stravinsky published these two pieces in 1947 and 1913 respectively. Stravinsky (1882.06.17-1971.04.06) was born in Oraninbaum, near St. Petersburg, Russia. In 1910, he became famous for composing the music of the ballet "Firebird". He moved to Switzerland in 1914, moved to the United States in 1940, and became an American citizen in 1945. His greatest contribution to music was to point out a new musical concept involving changing rhythms, unbalanced beats, extraordinary ingenious orchestration, and highly incompatible chords, which had a profound impact on the 20th century. His main works include: 1908,"Symphony in E-flat Major", vocal repertoire "The Fathers and Shepheresses" in 1909,"Fantasy Harmony" and "Fireworks" in 1910, ballet "Firebird" in 1911, ballet "Petrushka" in 1913, ballet "Festival to Youth", which marked the beginning of musical modernity. 1918, the musical "The Soldier's Tale" 1920,"Band Symphony", Ballet "Puccinella" 1923, Ballet Cantata "Wedding","Band Octet" 1924,"Piano and Band Concerto","Piano Sonata" 1925,"Piano Serenade in A" 1927, the musical oratorio "King Oedipus" 1928, the ballet "Apollo the Commander of Mius" 1030, Cantata's "Symphony of the Psalms" 1931,"Violin Concerto in D Major" 1934,"Pasefeni" 1935,"Concerto for Two Solos" 1938,"Dumbarton Oaks Concerto" 1940,"Symphony in C" 1945,"Symphony in Three Movements" 1955,"Hymn" 1957, Ballet "Competition" 1958,"Lamentations" 1959,"Movement" 1964, Orchestra "Variations" 1966,"Requiem" News raw data sources → https://www.abtool.cn/today_detail/1g4f.html 17WorldNews[2025.09.27-14:10] 访问:82
