"I would like to possess the technique of #IgorStravinsky, the delicacy of #MauriceRavel, the grace of #HenryPurcell, the sensitivity of #ClaudeDebussy, the mischief of #WolfgangAmadeusMozart, the imagination of #BélaBartók, the fantasy of #ÉricSatie, #TheloniousMonk’s humour and #PierreBoulez’s bank account." - Albert Marcoeur, 2026

Also: it includes pieces set to music by Benjamin Britten (Diversions), Arvo Pärt (Fratres), Igor Stravinsky (Circus Polka), Bach, Hayden, Mozart, ...

The performers include dancers who I remember from when my dad first took me to the Ballet, when I was a young kid, but also more recent favourites, including: Lydia Bustinduy, Prince Credell, Jorge Nozal, Jianhui Wang, Roger van der Poel, Parvaneh Scharafali, Lukas Timulak.

And: Sol Leon and Paul Lightfoot perform! I only every experienced them as choreographers, never as dancers. I literally cried when I saw that they're on the program. This is huge!

In case you’re wondering if Stravinsky left his mark on Jazz outside of orchestras. Here’s a really great article about Jazz musicians and their love for “Rite of Spring” (https://www.npr.org/sections/deceptivecadence/2013/05/26/186486269/why-jazz-musicians-love-the-rite-of-spring) and this account of Charlie Parker and his Quintet played for him in the early 1950s (https://www.openculture.com/2016/10/the-night-when-charlie-parker-played-for-igor-stravinsky-1951.html)

And the second Stravinsky piece is the “Ebony Concerto” (https://youtu.be/ToYUCuUE9pk?si=dXPz_YRR-9zeWOIc) from 1945 which was commissioned by Jazz clarinetist and big band leader Woody Herman after Stravinsky immigrated to the USA. During which time he traveled to New Orleans, Chicago and NYC extensively to explore the Jazz of those respective cities

Igor Stravinsky was introduced to Black American music during trips to the USA for performances and lectures. He took an immediate shine to Jazz, Ragtime and Gospel music- often staying up late into the night at Jazz clubs while here. “L'Histoire du soldat” began life in late 1917 as a series of piano pieces based on Ragtime and Jazz melodies.

The first of the two “L'Histoire du Soldat (The Soldier's Tale)” from 1918 (https://youtu.be/Wcyk7TK3DNY?si=f49qpBfgR2_oQs6Q) This is a suite Stravinsky wrote as part of a longer piece that incorporates spoken and sung words from actors and dance pieces based on Russian ethnographist Alexander Afanasyev’s folktale “The Runaway Soldier and the Devil”. It features elements of Jazz, ragtime and blues chords and phrasing throughout the piece.

En décembre 1928, Kurt Weill répond à une commande de la Radio de Francfort afin de commémorer le dixième anniversaire de la Première Guerre mondiale. Contrairement à ce que son titre laisse penser, son Berliner Requiem (1928) sur des poèmes si forts sur la guerre de Bertolt Brecht, est une cantate totalement profane. Il ressort de l’ensemble une couleur sonore particulière au service de l’engagement artistique des deux artistes, en hommage à Rosa Luxemburg, figure centrale et pacifiste assassinée le 15 janvier 1919.
Cette œuvre est mise en regard avec les Symphonies d’instruments à vent de Stravinsky, mais aussi avec Friede auf Erden de Schoenberg, et la mystérieuse et magique cantate Ode à un rossignol (1985) de Valentin Silvestrov, patriarche de la musique ukrainienne. Cette musique de la suggestion dessine avec une infinie délicatesse, au moyen de sonorités fragiles et éphémères, ce mélange de nature, de paysages et de réflexion sur le destin esquissé par le poète anglais John Keats dont les premiers vers donnent toute la mesure de l’oeuvre : « Dans le noir, j’écoute ; oui, plus d’une fois j’ai été presque amoureux de la mort ».

Un rendez-vous à ne pas manquer qui inaugure une manifestation annuelle en hommage aux artistes et compositeurs contraints à l’exil.

Also: on Stravinsky, was smitten with the Violin Concerto so played that a bunch early in the year, and then an album of his piano work and transcriptions (with 100+ pieces) play on shuffle for half a day...

But because of the way my listening habits fall, that's enough to get him my #2 spot as an artist.

Not that there's anything wrong with #IgorStravinsky!
