Igor Stravinsky's 'The Firebird' by The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra - Live Concert Stream
Calling all classical music fans - watch the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra live from the comfort of your own home. Available now in cinematic quality
On Air presents Igor Stravinsky's The Firebird, performed by the world-renowned Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Peter Breiner, and recorded at BBC Television Centre.
Expertly brought to life by some of the world's most sought-after classical musicians, The Firebird comprises 74 musicians: 51 string, 11 brass, 8 woodwind and 4 percussion. Available now to watch on demand in cinematic quality.
The Firebird is a ballet and orchestral concert work first performed at the Opéra de Paris on 25 June 1910, written for the Paris season of Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes company. During this period, composer Igor Stravinsky was still relatively unknown and in the early stages of his career. The ballet's triumph began a fruitful collaboration between the two and The Firebird catapulted Igor Stravinsky to international fame. Although designed as a work for the stage, with specific passages accompanying characters and action, the music has achieved equal, if not greater recognition, as a concert piece.
A cinematic live stream of the highest quality, the show is available to watch in 4K UHD with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos sound. The show can be streamed on demand with unlimited replays through the On Air website, mobile and TV apps.
