Musical Storytelling: Hannigan and Stravinsky

International star Barbara Hannigan presents Igor Stravinsky’s Pulcinella with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and, as soloists, some of the talented young singers from Equilibrium. Music for the Theatre by Aaron Copland was not written for any particular play, but the work has such a theatrical atmosphere that Copland did not hesitate in giving it the title he did.
