The Rake's Progress by Igor Stravinsky is one of the most important operas of the 20th Century. In this modern morality take based on Hogarth’s famous drawings of corruption and debauchery in 18th Century London, Stravinsky and his librettist WH Auden trace the decline of their anit-hero Tom Rakewell who, having sold his soul to the devil, descends into madness and despair.
