The Rake's Progress

This became especially important during his neoclassical period when he looked back to composers and musical forms of the 18th century while giving them a distinctly modern sound.

Works such as Apollo and The Rake's Progress reflect this fascination with balance and discipline.

For Stravinsky, creativity didn't always mean breaking the rules.

Sometimes the rules themselves could set the imagination free.

But one of the boys was off.

So she played one of the characters in the Rakes Progress gambling scene, which had four men.

She put on an eye shade and she was one of the four men in this thing of the Rakes Progress, which was lovely.

And everybody, it was a great program anyway.
