The Rite of Spring-EPIC PERCUSSION MOMENT

There are a ton of polyrhythms happening during this section and I go over them in my new book: The Rite of Spring-A Percussionist's Guide. All you need to know about the percussion and timpani parts and all the discrepancies throughout the editions. Pick it up in paperback or ebook here-

This is the section from 3 before 65 to 71. I start with the percussion alone and then add the orchestra in for context.

There was nothing like this being remotely written before this! And this was 1913. Technically 1912 when Stravinsky was actually writing it out.

The washboard I'm playing is commonly used instead of the original güiro that's in the part. A washboard is much louder and Stravinsky wants this to take over the orchestra anyway.

Enjoy!
