Rite of Spring: Remixed

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010

Conductor Andrew Cyr and DJ Ricardo Romaneiro bring Stravinsky into the 21st century with an electronic reinvention of "The Rite of Spring." They join us in the Soundcheck studio to share the secrets of setting Stravinsky's most famous work to keyboards, laptops, brass and drums.

The Rite: Remixed will premiere tonight and tomorrow night at Le Poisson Rouge. It will be performed again Friday night for free at the Prospect Park bandshell. WNYC will present a live Webcast of the event on WNYC.org and WNYC2.
