Igor Stravinsky (1882–1971) was a groundbreaking Russian-born composer, pianist, and conductor who became one of the most influential figures in 20th-century music. He first rose to fame with his ballets for the Ballets Russes, particularly The Firebird (1910), Petrushka (1911), and the revolutionary The Rite of Spring (1913), which famously caused a riot at its premiere due to its bold rhythms and dissonance. Stravinsky's style evolved throughout his career, moving from Russian nationalism to neoclassicism and later to serialism. He lived in Russia, France, and eventually the United States, where he continued composing until his death. Stravinsky’s music reshaped modern classical composition and cemented his legacy as a fearless innovator.
