The idea for this book came to me shortly after I completed The Music of Igor Stravinsky (1983). I had wanted to develop and in certain instances reshape a number of ideas in that earlier volume in terms of a single work, The Rite of Spring . The choice of The Rite was at least partially determined by the surfacing of a wealth of source material in recent decades. My idea was, quite simply, to expand on earlier formulations within the context of The Rite 's conception as a ballet, the sketches, the emergence of a critical tradition, and the numerous revisions that followed its celebrated premiere on May 29, 1913.
