Description Igor Stravinsky, with Diaghilev and the Ballets Russes, gave the world two of the 20th century’s greatest ballet scores, The Rite of Spring and The Firebird, which represented as bold a departure for music as for dance. This performance presents The Firebird choreographed for solo dancer (Delia Silvan) by Lucy Guerin. Two other ballet scores complete the program: Pulcinella and Jeu de Cartes (Game of Cards).
