Join Juanjo Mena and the 大象传媒 Philharmonic for the finale of the orchestra's Stravinsky ballet celebration. The evening opens in a blaze of joie de vivre, with the massed trumpets and sheer energy of Jan谩cek's roof-raising Sinfonietta. Louis Lortie then brings his characteristic panache to Ravel's gleaming art-deco concerto. When Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring was premiered in Paris a hundred years ago, it started a riot - it was violent, primal and thrillingly raw, and no-one had heard anything like it. A century on, audiences are still reeling from the aftershock.
