Stravinsky's Renard at The Rest is Noise with Barbara Hannigan and the London Sinfonietta

Ninfea Cruttwell-Reade, 10th February

Sunday’s programme focused on the output of Igor Stravinsky, the Russian composer who famously engendered riotous uproar at the Paris Opera House in 1913 with his savage ballet Le sacre du printemps.
