Hear more. Feel more. Be more! Come with me and dive into some great classical music. For over 1000 years great musicians have explored what it means to live, love, die and everything in between: asking all our deep and universal questions. Escape the cacophony - the noise of your brain and daily life; tune into the music, your feelings and emotions ‘good’ and ‘bad’ …and find the space, stillness and love that underpins everything. NB: May include loud noise, surprises, challenges, cacophonous racket. May cause shock, comfort, discomfort, smiles, tears, peace, transcendence. www.cacophonyonline.com classical music Home of the Women’s World Cup of Classical Music

148. Rituals, a riot and a revolution: Stravinsky, The Rite of Spring

110 years ago in Paris, Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring caused a furore and changed music forever. Did the police have to be called? It's still a piece that shocks and stuns and is filled with something amazing every second.
Listening time c45 mins (podcast, 12', Music 33')
Music here on Spotify, Amazon and Apple Music played by the Junge Deutsche Philharmonie with conductor, Peter Eötvös. You can buy the recording or stream it too at Presto Music
There are plenty of video performances on Youtube. I like this one, played by the Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France with Mikko Franck. The TV director really captures the personalities in the orchestra and gets in nice and close.
