12 maltatoday | SUNDAY • 8 SEPTEMBER 2019 LISTINGS WHAT'S ON Music 20-22 SEPTEMBER Malta Military Tattoo The Malta Military Tattoo 2019 will be held between the 20th and 22nd of September 2019 at St George's Square, Val- letta. The Malta Military Tat- too, is a yearly event which fea- tures military bands and other elements which come together to provide a spectacular show for audiences of all ages. The music played combines popular tunes, with the more classical and these are all performed in the context of a Military March parade to provide a spectacular experience for everyone to en- joy. The music chosen appeals to all ages. The display starts at 7pm. 14 SEPTEMBER The Rite of Spring The premiere of the bal- let in 1913 caused a scandal. Commissioned by Diaghilev, the work describes a pagan ritual where a virgin dances herself to death. The riots that ensued in the theatre were a reaction to Stravin- sky's jarring rhythms and complex innovations, Nijin- sky's exotic choreography and Roerick 's bizarre set- tings. The Piano Concerto by fellow Russian Rachmaninoff is contrastingly full of lyrical melodies. Often described as the greatest piano concerto ever written, the work is full of dialogue between orches- tra and soloist. The event starts at 8pm.
