"Le Sacre du Printemps" itself was a work that famed conductor Leonard Bernstein characterized as »only one of your everyday volcanic masterpieces ... a miraculous new creation of such originality and power that still today it shocks and overwhelms us«
More than a century ago "Le Sacre du Printemps" shocked and overwhelmed its first audience, provoking a now legendary riot at its Paris premiere whose notoriety and magnitude was unprecedented in the history of classical music
The opening night audience included, among the ladies, gentlemen and diplomats, such luminaries as Pablo Picasso, Marcel Proust, Gertrude Stein, Maurice Ravel and Claude Debussy
