Never in the history of Western music has a premiere caused as much furore as this one, held at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées on 29 May 1913. The music and the choreography so affected the audience that the police were needed to pacify the crowd. </div> Mon, 12 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.sinfonia.is/en/nr/1810 http://www.sinfonia.is/media/myndir-201213/preview/artfest_forsida.jpg artfest_forsida
