Answer:

The answer is option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stravinsky rose to conspicuousness when he was charged by the manager Sergei Diaghilev to make three ballet productions. The ballet performances were The Fire bird, Petrushka, and Rite of Spring, all made somewhere in the range of 1910 and 1913.Between the early pieces, composed under the eye of his solitary educator, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, and the structures of Stravinsky's seniority, there were in excess of 100 works: ensembles, concertos, chamber pieces, tunes, piano sonatas, musical dramas and, most importantly, ballet performances.
