Regular price

Igor Stravinsky’s The Firebird paints a tonal masterpiece from the initial notes, to the closing curtains of his earliest work. The composer’s interpretation of Diaghilev’s 1910 ballet is as magnificent as the fiery plumage of its firebird. This 1978 performance, masterfully led by the great choral master and conductor Robert Shaw, is a highly regarded recording in the classical community. This reissue will mark the first pressing of the title on vinyl since its original release.
