Igor Stravinsky (1882- 1971) 

The Firebird

   The firebird is one of the first ballet works composed by russian genious Igor Stravinsky. He wrote this music when he was in his 20s and its immediate success made him become one of the most important composers of the whole 20th century. He also wrote other ballet works like 'Petrushka' and 'The rite of spring'.

   Stravinsky was a very prolific composer who experienced many different styles: impressionism, expressionism, jazz, neoclassicism,… and he was really talented in orchestrating music (writing for a whole symphonic orchestra).

   The 20th century doesn't have a specific music style. Instead, many different features emerged at the same time. It is said that every composer had his own personal style with specific characteristics.
