From the Ottawa Tourism listing
In this special evening, Stravinsky’s compositions will be brought to life on stage in two one-act ballets: Firebird, composed in 1910 for Diaghilev's Les Ballets Russes, and The Fairy’s Kiss, composed in 1928 for Les Ballets de Madame Ida Rubinstein. Often described as revolutionary, Stravinsky’s work is difficult to characterize given his chameleon-like ability to constantly change his musical style. From percussive and folkloric, to precise, concise and witty, the rhythmic vitality of his music has cemented him as one of the most beloved composers for dance.
