roseverbena: lilacturtl: blogthoven: Igor Stravinsky (17 June 1882 – 6 April 1971) “Music’s exclusive function is to structure the flow of time and keep order in it.” One of my heros, and my imaginary friend when I was 4-6. Yes, really. As a classical musician, you know you’re doing something right when one of your pieces is so earth-shattering that it causes riots in the streets of Paris! can we talk about when i was in a full symphony orchestra playing stravinsky’s firebird? ahhh…
