Igor Stravinsky - Symphony Of Psalms Mass Babel

Facts For all it's traditional ties, Stravinsky´s music continues to have a shocklingly modern effect on many listeners even today. In his music praise of God is formulated in tones entirely different from those expected by music lovers schooled in the romantic tradition. Stravinsky did not compose "emotional" or "expressive" religious music but sought objectivity, archaic prototypes, and traditions of timeless value, presenting these elements as if under microscopic enlargement.
