Stuart offers the most thorough discography of the works and
recordings of Igor Stravinsky to date as well as a chronicle of the
composer's recording career. As the first discography to list all
of Stravinsky's recorded compositions, including concert and
broadcast performances, both pre- and post-World War II, as well as
all LP issues, this volume displays the wide range of Stravinsky's
talent. The significance of Robert Craft's contribution to the
continued exposure of Stravinsky's works after 1948 is well
documented, as are the piano performances recorded by Stravinsky's
son. A lengthy introductory essay traces Stravinsky's recording
history from his early use of the pianola through the advent of
more sophisticated musical technology which enabled the composer to
become the composer-performer. The discography itself lists 191
studio performances, catalogs recorded issues, and details
unpublished recordings. The chronological index of Stravinsky's
compositions which follows is cross-referenced to the recordings
already cited, thereby showing each recording relative to the date
of the work's composition. This extensive listing of recordings,
combined with the narrative account of Stravinsky's recording
history provides the collector with a valuable updated guide to
almost all of the composer's works.
