- La consagració de la primavera, habitualment referit amb el títol original en francès, Le Sacre du printemps és un ballet coreografiat per Vaslav Nijinski amb música del compositor rus Ígor Stravinski, que va ser estrenat l'any 1913. Mentre que el títol rus significa literalment "Sagrada Primavera", el títol català està basat en el francès, sota el qual l'obra va ser estrenada, traduint més precisament sacre com "consagració". Porta el subtítol "Quadres de la Rússia pagana" . A més de Nijinski, posteriorment aquesta composició musical ha inspirat nombrosos altres grans coreògrafs de dansa del segle XX, com per exemple Maurice Béjart, Pina Bausch, Martha Graham, Angelin Preljocaj, Uwe Scholz i Emanuel Gat, que han fet les seves pròpies versions del ballet original.
- Svěcení jara (napsáno pod francouzským titulem Le Sacre du Printemps, ruský titul je Весна священная, Vesna svjaščennaja, podtitul skladby je Obrazy z pohanského Ruska, francouzsky Tableaux de la Russie païenne) je balet na hudbu Igora Stravinského. Autorem původní choreografie je Vaclav Fomič Nižinskij, autorem původní výpravy byl malíř, filosof a archeolog Nicholas Roerich. Jde o jednu z nejvýznamnějších skladeb avantgardní hudby dvacátého století. Na své premiéře v Paříži 29. května 1913 způsobila skandální potyčku, zapříčiněnou novátorskými technikami. Dějově je balet fantastickou rekonstrukcí slovanského pohanského jarního rituálu, při němž, dle Stravinského slov „moudří starci sesazení v kruhu pozorují předsmrtný tanec dívky, kterou pak obětují bohu Jara, aby získali jeho milost“. Dělí se na dvě části, první se jmenuje Uctívání země, druhý Obětování.
- Die New York Times berichtet am 8. Juni 1913 von der Uraufführung des Balletts „Consecration of Spring“:]] Le sacre du printemps. Tableaux de la Russie païenne en deux parties ist die 1913 komponierte dritte der drei großen Ballettmusiken, die Igor Strawinski vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg für die Ballets Russes von Sergei Djagilew komponiert hat. Es gilt aufgrund außergewöhnlicher rhythmischer klanglicher Strukturen als ein Schlüsselwerk der Musik des 20. Jahrhunderts, das zugleich wegen seiner zahlreichen Dissonanzen und wegen mehrfacher schneidend-scharfer Einwürfe im Gegensatz zu den ersten beiden Ballettmusiken Strawinskis beim Publikum überwiegend Missfallen erregte.
- The Rite of Spring, original French title Le sacre du printemps (Russian: Весна священная, Vesna svyashchennaya), is a ballet with music by Igor Stravinsky; choreography by Vaslav Nijinsky; and concept, set design and costumes by Nicholas Roerich. It was produced by Sergei Diaghilev for his Ballets Russes ballet company and had its première in Paris on 29 May 1913. The music's innovative complex rhythmic structures, timbres, and use of dissonance have made it a seminal 20th-century composition. In 1973, composer and conductor Leonard Bernstein said of one passage, "That page is sixty years old, but it's never been topped for sophisticated handling of primitive rhythms... ", and of the work as a whole, "... it's also got the best dissonances anyone ever thought up, and the best asymmetries and polytonalities and polyrhythms and whatever else you care to name. " A performance of the work lasts about 33 minutes.
- La consagración de la primavera (original en francés, Le Sacre du printemps; en inglés, The Rite of Spring; en ruso, Весна священная) es un ballet en dos actos basado en la Rusia pagana (L'adoration de la terre y Le sacrifice), con música del compositor ruso Ígor Stravinski y coreografía de Vaslav Nijinsky creado para los Ballets Rusos de Sergéi Diágilev. Es una de las obras más revolucionarias y trascendentales de toda la música clásica por sus innovaciones en armonía, ritmo y timbre. Fue estrenada en París en el Théâtre des Champs-Élysées el 29 de mayo de 1913 con Pierre Monteux como director de orquesta. Tuvo gran rechazo en su época, provocando que en el segundo acto se tuviera que contener al público. El título en español se traduce de la versión original francesa: Le sacre du printemps, con el que fue estrenado. No obstante, su título en ruso es: Весна священная, que significa, literalmente: Primavera, la sagrada. En la partitura se agrega al título la siguiente frase: "Imágenes de la Rusia pagana". El escándalo que acompañó a esta representación fue célebre y se criticó tanto la música de Stravinski como la coreografía de Nijinski.
- Kevätuhri (venäjäksi Весна священная, ranskaksi Le sacre du printemps) on baletti, jonka on säveltänyt venäläinen Igor Stravinsky. Stravinsky sävelsi baletin vuosien 1911 ja 1913 välisenä aikana Sergei Djagilevin Ballets Russes -baletille. Se esitettiin ensimmäisen kerran 29. toukokuuta vuonna 1913 Pariisissa Théâtre des Champs-Élysées'ssä. Kapellimestari oli Pierre Monteux. Baletin kantaesitys oli skandaali, musiikinhistorian pahamaineisimpia ensi-iltoja. Teos herätti kiihkeitä tunteita, ja sen kannattajat ja vastustajat aloittivat lähestulkoon mellakan. Kevätuhrin musiikissa rytmi on tärkeämpi kuin melodia ja lyömäsoittimet ovat hallitsevassa asemassa. Erimielisyyksiä synnytti paitsi itse väkivaltainen musiikki myös Vatslav Nižinskin koreografia. Kevätuhrista on tullut 1900-luvun musiikin keskeisiä orkesteriteoksia, ja se kuuluu suurten orkesterien kantaohjelmistoon, mutta sitä esitetään aika ajoin myös alkuperäisessä muodossaan tanssiteoksena.
- Le Sacre du printemps (en russe, Весна священная), sous-titré Tableaux de la Russie païenne en deux parties, est un ballet composé par Igor Stravinsky et chorégraphié originellement par Vaslav Nijinski pour les Ballets russes de Serge de Diaghilev. Sa création au théâtre des Champs-Élysées à Paris, le 29 mai 1913 a provoqué un scandale. Dans le Sacre, Stravinsky approfondit les éléments déjà expérimentés avec ses deux premiers ballets, L'Oiseau de feu et Petrouchka, soit le rythme et l'harmonie. L'un est constitué d'un dynamisme sans précédent, alors que l'autre repose en partie sur l'utilisation d'agrégats sonores. On considère aujourd'hui la partition de Stravinsky comme une des œuvres les plus importantes du XX siècle qui a inspiré de nombreux chorégraphes tels que Maurice Béjart, Pina Bausch, Angelin Preljocaj, Martha Graham, Uwe Scholz ou Emanuel Gat, qui en donneront leurs propres versions.
- La sagra della primavera (titolo originale Le Sacre du printemps) è un balletto rappresentato per la prima volta a Parigi il 29 maggio 1913 al Théâtre des Champs-Elysées dai Balletti russi di Sergej Djaghilev, su musica di Igor' Stravinskij, con scenografie di Nikolaj Konstantinovič Roerich e per la coreografia di Vačlav Nižinskij. La traduzione di "sagra" calcata su "sacre" non è fedele all'originale, perché il significato del termine francese è "rituale": una traduzione basata solo sul significato sarebbe dunque "Il rituale della primavera".
- 『春の祭典』(はるのさいてん、原題フランス語:Le sacre du printemps, 英語:The rite of spring )は、ロシアの作曲家イーゴリ・ストラヴィンスキーがセルゲイ・ディアギレフが率いるバレエ・リュス(ロシア・バレエ団)のために作曲したバレエ音楽。1913年に完成し、同年5月29日に初演された。20世紀の近代音楽の傑作に挙げられる作品であり、複雑なリズム、ポリフォニー、不協和音に満ちていて、初演当時けが人も出る大騒動となったことで知られる。
- 《봄의 제전》은 러시아의 작곡가 이고르 스트라빈스키의 발레곡이다. ‘봄의 제전’이라는 제목은 이 곡이 1913년 5월 29일 파리 샹젤리제 극장에서 초연했을 당시의 프랑스어 제목 《Le Sacre du printemps》을 번역한 것이다. 러시아어 제목은 《Весна священная》로, ‘신성한 봄’이라는 뜻이다. 음악은 2부 14곡으로, 제1부는 <대지 예찬:L’Adoration de la terre>, 제2부는 <희생:Le Sacrifice>으로 되어 있다. 러시아 이교도들의 대지와 태양신에 대한 찬미를 제재로 한 회화적인 곡으로, 그 강렬한 리듬과 원시주의적 색채가 강한 선율로 당시 대단한 반향을 불러일으켰다. 20세기 음악의 혁신적 작품이다.

Foi produzido por Sergei Diaghilev para sua companhia de ballet Ballets Russes, tendo estreado em Paris em 29 de maio de 1913. As inovadoras e complexas estruturas rítmicas da música, timbres, e uso de dissonância fizeram dele um seminal da composição do século XX. Em 1973, o compositor e maestro Leonard Bernstein disse em uma passagem: "Esse papel tem sessenta anos de idade...

- Våroffer är en modernistisk balett komponerad av ryske kompositören Igor Stravinskij. Den uppfördes ursprungligen i Paris den 29 maj 1913 med den ryske koreografen Vatslav Nizjinskij av Ballets Russes. Scenografin och kostymerna var utförda av Nicholas Roerich. Baletten upplevdes som så annorlunda och provokativ för sin samtids publik att den vid uruppförandet orsakade tumult i salongen till den grad att polis fick tillkallas. Våroffer är nog Stravinskijs mest kända balett. Den är känd för att den bytte taktart 150 gånger på slutet, vilket var revolutionerande och mottogs med skepsis. I Våroffer ville Stravinskij visa naturens kraft. I baletten blir en ung flicka offrad till naturen för att jorden ska få liv och värme. Den är oerhört suggestiv, vilket också chockerade samtiden.
- «Весна священна» (фр. Le Sacre du printemps, рос. Весна священная) — балет Ігоря Стравінського, написаний на замовлення Сергія Дягілева для його Російського балету у 1912-1913 роках.
- 《春之祭》(法語:Le Sacre du Printemps)是俄羅斯作曲家伊戈爾·斯特拉文斯基(Игорь Фёдорович Стравинский)的代表作與成名作。本來是一部芭蕾舞劇,但後來腳本遺失,只剩下管弦樂總譜。 1910年,當斯特拉文斯基剛為佳吉列夫(Серге́й Па́влович Дя́гилев)完成了芭蕾舞舞劇《火鳥》的音樂後不久,他幻想出一個景象—那是俄羅斯遠古時期的祭祖儀式:「我想像到一個肅穆的異教祭典:一群長老圍成一圈坐著,看見一位少女被要求跳舞直至跳死。她是他們用以祭祀春天之神的祭品。」 原本他打算採用芭蕾舞劇的形式,但後來他承認,起初他不能恰當地以傳統記譜法寫下樂思,於是為演奏者修改樂譜,簡化全首作品(但同時他又建議開首巴松管旋律的音調應逐年提高,因為「聽眾會習慣那些高音,但這種緊張的感覺是不可或缺的」)。他邀請狄亞列夫將作品搬上舞台,佈景由羅耶里奇設計,尼金斯基則負責編舞。 《春之祭》首演時爆發的騷動並未為作品本身帶來長遠影響;反而,全曲粗獷而又有濃郁的俄羅斯風格,卻成為二十世紀古典音樂創作的典範。 全曲共分两幕十四個部分。第一幕《大地的崇拜》共有八個舞曲組成,第二幕《祭献》由六個舞曲組成。

- The Rite of Spring, French title Le Sacre du Printemps is a ballet and orchestral concert work by the Russian composer Igor Stravinsky. It was written for the 1913 Paris season of Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes company, with choreography by Vaslav Nijinsky and stage designs and costumes by Nikolai Roerich. When the ballet was first performed, at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées on 29 May 1913, the avant-garde nature of the music and choreography caused a near-riot in the audience. Nevertheless, Stravinsky's music achieved rapid success as a concert piece, and became recognised as one of the most influential musical works of the 20th century. It is very widely performed in the concert hall, and is frequently revived on the stage. Stravinsky was a young, virtually unknown composer when Diaghilev recruited him to create works for the Ballets Russes. The Rite was the third such project, after the acclaimed The Firebird and Petrushka. The concept behind The Rite, developed by Roerich from Stravinsky's outline idea, is suggested by its subtitle, "Pictures of Pagan Russia"; in the scenario, after various primitive rituals celebrating the advent of spring, a young girl is chosen as a sacrificial victim and dances herself to death. After a mixed critical reception for its original run and a short London tour, the ballet was unperformed until the 1920s, when a version choreographed by Leonide Massine replaced Nijinsky's original. Massine's was the forerunner of many innovative productions directed by the world's leading ballet-masters, which gained the work worldwide acceptance. In the 1980s Nijinsky's original choreography, long believed lost, was reconstructed by the Joffrey Ballet in Los Angeles. Stravinsky's score contains many features that were novel for its time, including experiments in tonality, metre, rhythm, stress and dissonance. Analysts have noted in the score a significant grounding in Russian folk music, a relationship which Stravinsky tended to deny. The music has influenced many of the 20th century's leading composers, and is one of the most recorded works in the classical repertoire.

It was written for the 1913 Paris season of Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes company, with choreography by Vaslav Nijinsky and stage designs and costumes by Nicholas Roerich. When the ballet was first performed, at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées on 29 May 1913, the avant-garde nature of the music and choreography caused a near-riot in the audience. Although designed as a work for the stage, with specific passages accompanying characters and action, the music achieved growing success as a concert piece and later became recognised as one of the most influential musical works of the 20th century. It is widely performed in the concert hall, and is frequently revived on the stage. Stravinsky was a young, virtually unknown composer when Diaghilev recruited him to create works for the Ballets Russes. The Rite was the third such project, after the acclaimed The Firebird (1910) and Petrushka (1911). The concept behind The Rite, developed by Roerich from Stravinsky's outline idea, is suggested by its subtitle, "Pictures of Pagan Russia in Two Parts"; in the scenario, after various primitive rituals celebrating the advent of spring, a young girl is chosen as a sacrificial victim and dances herself to death. After a mixed critical reception for its original run and a short London tour, the ballet was unperformed until the 1920s, when a version choreographed by Léonide Massine replaced Nijinsky's original. Massine's was the forerunner of many innovative productions directed by the world's leading ballet-masters, which gained the work worldwide acceptance. In the 1980s, Nijinsky's original choreography, long believed lost, was reconstructed by the Joffrey Ballet in Los Angeles. Stravinsky's score contains many features that were novel for its time, including experiments in tonality, metre, rhythm, stress and dissonance. Analysts have noted in the score a significant grounding in Russian folk music, a relationship which Stravinsky tended to deny. The music has influenced many of the 20th century's leading composers and is one of the most recorded works in the classical repertoire.
