As war loomed on the horizon and Stravinsky made his way through the streets of Paris, the seeds were planted for a revolutionary piece of work that would, upon its premiere in 1913, send even the most fashionable of Parisians into a riotous rage. Of course the reputation of "The Rites of Spring" continues to endure, and in addition to offering a revealing look at the story of this masterful work, this release also offers a special performance of "The Rites of Spring" by the San Francisco Symphony.

Though initially developed as a form of survival transport in colder alpine and tundra environments, skiing has become a prime leisure sport with a wide and dedicated following of keen participants that includes all levels of society from royals to republicans.

But now skiing has developed further and entered the 'Extreme' area of sporting activity. This is achieved when the risk factor is dramatically increased by practising the sport away from the commercial slopes in far more radical 'unspoiled' locations that are considerably more of a challenge to the skier's skills and daring.

Extreme skiing demands different attitudes, finer judgements, more sharply honed skills and specialised expertise.
