And "rebels" they were! In different ways and music genres, Fauré, Stravinsky and Gershwin changed the norms of music at the time of transition - 1910 to 1920 - in Paris and elsewhere! From the smooth melodies with harmonic twists of Faure, to the wild Russian folk tunes adapted to rag of Stravinsky and the symphonic jazz of Gershwin, this very unusual concert was custom designed to be part of the first Philadelphia International Festival of the Arts!
