The Bard SummerScape festival, which will run from July 6 to Aug. 18, will focus on Russia and explore the cultural impact of Igor Stravinsky, devoting its final two weekends to a broad survey of his music, organizers said in announcing the new season.
Other offerings include a rare presentation of Sergey Taneyevâs opera âOresteia,â written toward the end of the 19th century and considered the Russian composerâs greatest work; a production of the play âThe Master and Margarita,â by Mikhail Bulgakov; and what the organizers call a âfresh responseâ to Stravinskyâs âRite of Spring,â a dance-theater work called âA Riteâ based on a collaboration of Bill T. Jones, the choreographer, and Anne Bogart, the director.
