STRAVINSKY
Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971) was one of the two or three most influential composers of the 20th century. Active in a wide range of musical styles and genres, outspoken in his opinions and a cultural icon even in non-musical circles, he is still a very strong presence among us 38 years after his death. The three great ballet scores for which he is best know (Firebird, Petrouchka, The Rite of Spring) are only a small part of his vast and varied musical output. Stravinsky’s life and works will be examined in this course.

Instructor: Robert Finn, former Plain Dealer music critic; teacher; lecturer; freelance writer
