Sergei Diaghilev
Russian composer [[Igor Stravinsky]], working for [[Sergei Diaghilev]] and the [[Ballets Russes]], achieved international fame with three ballets commissioned by the impresario Sergei Diaghilev and first performed in [[Paris]] by Diaghilev's Ballets Russes: "[[The Firebird]] (L'Oiseau de feu)" (1910), "[[Petrushka (ballet)|Petrushka]]" (1911) and "[[The Rite of Spring]]" (1913). The rhythmic structure of these compositions were largely responsible for Stravinsky's enduring reputation as a musical revolutionary who pushed the boundaries of musical design.
