The Rite of Spring: Full Orchestra Miniature Score

Says Grove's: "every canon of harmony seems to have been violated . . . yet with all its deliberate crudity and violence the 'Rite' is a clearly planned and perfectly controlled and coordinated piece of music [which] has for long been accepted universally as a masterpiece and is in the repertory of every large symphony orchestra. . . ."
