About This Event

Can a composer reuse the past and at the same time move in a forward direction? It鈥檚 the question that goes to the heart of Igor Stravinsky鈥檚 music - works that often take their inspiration from historical models but remain defiantly, distinctively modern. Martyn Brabbins joins the 麻豆官网首页入口 Scottish Symphony Orchestra to mark the 50th anniversary of Stravinsky鈥檚 death with a concert pairing the composer鈥檚 ballet Pulcinella 鈥� a witty, charming take on Baroque dance and commedia dell鈥檃rte 鈥� with the heart-rending Stabat mater by Pergolesi, whose music inspired it.
