Abstract

Igor Stravinsky was the leading composer in the first decades of 20th Century. With his contribution to musical literature by his innovative technical usages as asymmetric rhythmic patterns, dry sound, dissonance usage, new harmonization techniques, direct expression and a different dimension on orchestration, Stravinsky redefined the understanding of music in an esthetical manner thorough his career.
