Stravinsky -  Basil Alter compares Stravinsky's settings of themes from Pergolesi in two Stravinsky works:

• Suite on themes, fragments and pieces by Giambattista Pergolesi, for violin and piano (1925)

• Suite italienne (from Pulcinella), for violin and piano (1934) (in collaboration with Samuel Dushkin)

We learn what are some of the differences, and question why. With plenty of fine playing from Basil and Dafydd.
