Renowned conductor Pierre Boulez leads the Cleveland Orchestra through a stunningly precise interpretation of Igor Stravinsky's revolutionary early ballets. The recording is critically celebrated for its incredible clarity, brilliantly unearthing the ferocious, avant-garde polyrhythms and visceral ritualistic intensity embedded within the original orchestral scores.
