A number of performances - many of them streamed - will pay tribute to the Russian composer over the next month
The 50th anniversary of Igor Stravinsky’s death on 6 April 1971 is to be marked over the coming month with performances – many of them streamed due to the pandemic - as well as new publications including his Two Sketches for a Sonata, and an array of recordings in newly compiled box sets.
