Igor Stravinsky (June 17, 1882, Oranienbaum, Russia - April 6, 1971, New York, NY) is name-checked on the cover of "Freak Out!" (1966) under the heading "These People Have Contributed Materially In Many Ways To Make Our Music What It Is. Please Do Not Hold It Against Them". He is also mentioned in "The Real Frank Zappa Book" (1989).
Mentioned in "My Favorite Records", a FZ penned article in Hit Parader (1967): "Also, buy everything that you can by Igor Stravinsky and dance to it - especially "L'Histoire Du Soldat", which means "Soldier's Tale", and the "Agon" ballet, which is a beautiful thing."
Also mentioned during "Star Special", FZ as a guest DJ on BBC Radio 1 in 1980.
"The Royal March From 'L'Histoire Du Soldat'" and "The Rite of Spring" were 2 of the 10 records FZ selected (in 1989) for the American radio show Castaway's Choice, hosted by John McNally.
