In this 1960 recording, Stravinsky conducts his very own masterpiece, Le sacre (premiered for the first time in 1913, in Paris). I think it is the best version there is, full of excitement and mind-blowing energy. Bernstein's NYPO 1958 recording is also notable, but this is what you must feed your ears with. You will not fail to notice, The Rite of Spring is very much ahead of its time.
