Performing Rites: how Stravinsky’s Sacre du printemps still shocks

Mark Pullinger, 29th March

Over a century after its premiere, Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring still has the power to shock. Vasily Petrenko offers insights, while Tamara Rojo reflects on one of the most powerful choreographies, the version by Pina Bausch.

David Larkin, 4th October
