Anthony Burton continues his chronological survey of music from the first years of Stravinsky's exile from Russia, when his experiments with Russian idioms, jazz and the Baroque led him to adopt a radically new approach to composition. The programme begins with a rarely heard cantata dedicated to Debussy and ends with the Symphonies of Wind Instruments written in his memory.
