Igor Stravinsky first achieved dominance in his association with the Ballets Russes under Sergei Diaghilev with three ballets: The Firebird, Petrushka and The Rite of Spring. Stravinsky changed previous conceived notions of rhythmic structure. Following the ballets, he turned to neoclassical expression.

∙ 13y agoIn the 20th century, the music in the west took on a drastic change. The premier of Igor Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, a Ballet was attended by people in two different groups. one the radical who was ready to accept the change and the other, the conservative who refuse to accept the percussive sounds. The Conservatives booed and laughed and made animal noises in order to irritate those who fought to hear Stravinsky's evocation of the primitive rites. One music critic even complained that the Rite of Spring produced the "sensation of acute and almost cruel dissonance. FROM the first measure to the last, whatever note one expects to hear never comes." Another critic also commented that" to say much of the music is hideous is too mild a description. It has no relationship to music at all as most of us understand the word."
