Notes & Reviews:

The premiere of Stravinsky's Scare in Paris on 29 May 1913 was the occasion of one of the most famous scandals in music when this revolutionary masterpiece presented the audience with a completely new world of sounds and rhythms which caused a riot in the Theatre des Champs-Elysees.

Philadelphia Public Ledger
Unless you can feel the primitive urge... The Rite of Spring will merely seem one more horrible jargon from the start to the finish, sheer discord with no right to a place on the same program with true music.
