In case you’re wondering if Stravinsky left his mark on Jazz outside of orchestras. Here’s a really great article about Jazz musicians and their love for “Rite of Spring” (npr.org/sections/deceptivecade) and this account of Charlie Parker and his Quintet played for him in the early 1950s (openculture.com/2016/10/the-ni)

Igor Stravinsky was introduced to Black American music during trips to the USA for performances and lectures. He took an immediate shine to Jazz, Ragtime and Gospel music- often staying up late into the night at Jazz clubs while here. “L'Histoire du soldat” began life in late 1917 as a series of piano pieces based on Ragtime and Jazz melodies.

The first of the two “L'Histoire du Soldat (The Soldier's Tale)” from 1918 (youtu.be/Wcyk7TK3DNY?si=f49qpB) This is a suite Stravinsky wrote as part of a longer piece that incorporates spoken and sung words from actors and dance pieces based on Russian ethnographist Alexander Afanasyev’s folktale “The Runaway Soldier and the Devil”. It features elements of Jazz, ragtime and blues chords and phrasing throughout the piece.

Also: on Stravinsky, was smitten with the Violin Concerto so played that a bunch early in the year, and then an album of his piano work and transcriptions (with 100+ pieces) play on shuffle for half a day...

But because of the way my listening habits fall, that's enough to get him my #2 spot as an artist.

Not that there's anything wrong with #IgorStravinsky!
