About
Known for his Ballets Russes: "The Firebird" from 1910, "Petrushka" from 1911, and "The Rite of Spring" from 1913. He was regarded as a revolutionary who toyed with, crossed, and violated the traditionally held boundaries of musical design.

He finally pursued a music career after the great Russian composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov urged him to enlist in private composition lessons.
Trivia
He was stricken with typhoid after the premiere of "The Rite of Spring" and was forced to delay his travels while he recuperated in a Paris nursing home.
