* Igor Strawinski «Le Sacre du Printemps»  

Classical Music  The premiere of Igor Stravinsky’s ballet ‘Le Sacre du Printemps’ in 1913 ended with a regular scandal. To this day, it is considered one of the most complex and demanding orchestral compositions – a challenge that the Tonkunstler Orchestra and Krzysztof Urba.ski face with particular relish! Max Bruch’s First Violin Concerto was, by contrast, a great success right from the start. The solo part is taken care of by the celebrated virtuoso Emmanuel Tjeknavorian.
