Re: Tomorrow- Wednesday 5-29 is Le Sacre 100th

How does one learn their part in a work as complex as Le Sacre? By listening to recordings, studying the score, getting coaching from those who've played it, lots and lots of practice, etc. The old saw about 'standing on the shoulders of giants' applies.

But how did the original performers learn this work? Notes aside, how did the 1913 orchestra come to terms with the frequent meter changes? Nothing like it had ever been written before (at least nothing else that has become as well known).

I salute the memory of those long-gone musicians and the pioneering work they put into learning this monster of a piece with nothing to guide them.
