Stravinsky: Fairy Tales
Catalog Number: 8.574735
Igor Stravinsky is renowned for his glittering fairy tales, from Petrushka to The Firebird. This programme pairs the beloved Pulcinella Suite and the luminous Song of the Nightingale with lesser-known gems: The Fairy's Kiss, inspired by Tchaikovsky and Hans Christian Andersen, and the romantically sensual The Faun and the Shepherdess, Stravinsky's early gift to his young bride.
Stravinsky: Fairy Tales
Igor Stravinsky is renowned for his legacy of glittering fairy tales in treasured favourites such as Petrushka and The Firebird. Another favourite is the ballet Pulcinella, a lovable melange of Baroque theatricality, heard here in its concert suite form. The other works in this programme are surprisingly less known: the luminous and symphonic Song of the Nightingale, and The Fairy’s Kiss based on Tchaikovsky’s music, are both derived from stories by Hans Christian Andersen. An astonishing rarity, The Faun and the Shepherdess is an ancient Greek tale that was Stravinsky’s romantically sensual gift to his young bride.
