THE RITE OF SPRING

AT long last the post you have all been waiting for. *CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUMCHUMCHUM * No. its not a fierce dinosaur or rocks shooting out of the ground.

Actually This piece is about Pagan Russia. Thats right. A girl is chosen out of an ancient community of pagan nomads as a sacrifice to nature. But they don't just kill her, that would be far too easy and just frankly not cool enough for the russians. She has to dance to death. Naturally, Rite of Spring is a ballet. UNlike anyother you have ever seen or heard. Composed in 1913 by Stravinsky, this piece actually caused riots in the theater house when performed live. In any case, I can say that I am more obsessed with this piece than any rhcp song I have heard.(and for those of you who know me. that statement is a big deal) I will come back to more specifics of this piece, but first you need to go out an listen to it because, well what I am going to say will mean nothing. Music is the reason for this blog, so go LISTEN!
