Stravinsky: The Rake's Progress

For his sole full-length operatic venture, Igor Stravinsky composed a score to W. H Auden and Chester Kallman’s libretto for The Rake’s Progress that marries his brilliant rhythmic hi-jinks with a neo-classical homage, including set numbers for the characters...The libretto earns points for its clever mutation of the original source material, a series of sketches by Hogarth...Kazushi Ono conducts the La Monnaie forces with the attention to precision the score demands.
