Igor Stravinsky’s ongoing significance and influence, a half century after his death, is reassessed from a safe objective distance.

We invite you to listen to this new series of audio podcasts, presented by his publisher Boosey & Hawkes in honour of the 50th anniversary of his death. Each of the five short episodes is hosted by Jonathan Cross of Oxford University and author of a recent critical biography of the composer.
