when i was little, this was the only music that truly scared me, so i know where you're coming from. now i'm ok with it but, the rite of spring still is a little scary for me.

This is one of the most innovative dnces i have ever seen. Provocative.

Thanks, much.

@balletnut I don't know. I think that the fact that it is called "The Rite of Spring" alludes to some involvement with sexuality. As well as the fact that it is noted that a virgin is the sacrifice. Not a "maiden" or "young girl", but "virgin".

I think that most or at least many pagan rites involving spring had/have to do with fertility and mating rituals. So, I kinda believe that both versions have to do with sex. One overtly, and one symbolically.

So...what's the interpretation here?

This is so much better than the reconstructed Nijinsky choreography with a feel of dated self-conscious 're-enactment' about it. It would be nice to know what Stravinsky thought of it. Sex, death = opposite faces of the same coin of Life. I like the way they can use classical forms in a 'barbaric' way that probably Nijinsky could not to make a break from tradition. Years after the break it's possible to re-introduce classical smoothness without losing the strength.

@jmarquar Probably has something to do with the fact that it's an old recording.

clearly a mating ritual, not a sacrifice :P

i still like the original better, but they're as good as each other

Looks like The Rite of Spring has a whole new meaning here. So much for the virgin sacrifice, eh? lol There won't be any of that, it looks like, in this version of the ballet!!!
