"Imani Winds' members play David to Igor Stravinsky's imposing Goliath, as they shrink the massive 'Rite of Spring' down to size in a rendition for just five wind instruments. The result is an epic in miniature — and a performance perfect for a Tiny Desk."

The recording features the Borromeo String Quartet, Rachel Barton Pine, David Krakauer, Mellissa Hughes and others.
