(1882 - 1971) Igor Stravinsky short biography Universally
regarded as one of the most important modern composer, Igor
Stravinsky spent his earlier years in Russia. There Stravinsky
studied composition and orchestration with Rimsky-Korsakov.
Stravinsky’s first major success was in Paris with compositions
commissioned by the impresario Sergei Diaghilev. It was
Diaghilev for whom Stravinsky later wrote a number of ballet
scores. In 1939 Stravinsky moved to the United States. In the
post-war time Stravinsky abandoned a style of neo-classicism and
began composing in the twelve-note Schoenberg’s technique. A
versatile composer, Stravinsky has made great contribution to
many modern styles. At the invitation of the Russian government,
Stravinsky visited Moscow and Leningrad conducting his own
compositions. More Stravinsky sheet music download on
