About Stravinsky's Rite of Spring (source:Wikipedia)
"The Rite of Spring (Le Sacre du printemps, Vesna svyashchennaya, "sacred spring") 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; the original choreography was by Vaslav Nijinsky, with stage designs and costumes by Nicholas Roerich. When first performed, at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées on 29 May 1913, the avant-garde nature of the music and choreography caused a sensation and a near-riot in the audience. Although designed as a work for the stage, with specific passages accompanying characters and action, the music achieved equal if not greater recognition as a concert piece, and is widely considered to be one of the most influential musical works of the 20th century."

João Dorminsky is a a portuguese composer and founder of Ex. Entertainment Excellence.
Born and raised behind the screens of a prestigious film festival, his cinematic influence was always felt in earlier projects, but the true recognition of it's origin had a late awakening, curiously due to his immersion in theatre.
Through the landscapes of "Dystopia", "Heterotopia" and "GH (Human Gender)" soundtracks, Dorminsky's music creates a film-like feeling on stage, from the dark-orchestral "batmanesque" ensembles, to the light angelical choirs of bulgarian singers, that blend seamlessly with his native electronic atmospheres.
In his teen years, through the moniker Pi, the artist self-described it's creations as a "sound diary", when he first experienced music in computers. For that moment on, music became a soul passion in search of a unique persona.
As the antithesis to radio airplay and overtly disposable music, Pi assumed its full form in 1999, when João Dorminsky began to develop its solo orchestra, inspired by everything but conventional music. After the release of 3 Pi full-length albums and side projects like Low-Class Suite, Punk Androids, Tigre Deficiente, Futura and Adamastor, between darkness and light, we have a glimpse of what's to come.
