loveclassics Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 (edited) Today, (Saturday 25th May) at 12.15, Radio 3 has a programme about Stravinsky's Rite of Spring which includes choreographers Akram Khan and Mark Morris, both devising new interpretations of the Rite. Also featured is Deborah Bull, who danced the role of the Chosen Maiden and Monica Mason, for whom the Royal Ballet's Kenneth MacMillan created his legendary solo choreography and Millicent Hodson and Kenneth Archer explain how they reconstructed Nijinsky's 1913 ballet. I think it's one of several programmes celebrating the centenary of the first performance and the BBC website has a recording from last week's concert by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0195rlk.
