First Igor Stravinsky reappraised rhythm: thrusting it into the foreground as the dominant force of his ballet score The Rite of Spring, creating a fiery picture of ritual sacrifice far from the palace-bound romance that went before. It seemed music had changed forever. Until, that was, the arrival of Gyorgy Ligeti, whose Atmospheres reassessed even the concept of the musical 'note', creating otherwise unattainable 'atmospheres' through continuous, captivating sonorities. Mambo, Blues and Tarantella is commissioned by the London Philharmonic Orchestra in collaboration with the Stockholm Philharmonic and Toronto Symphony Orchestras.
