Zappa’s Stravinsky Borrowings (part 2)

As promised in my last post, here are several tables that account for most (if not all) of Zappa’s borrowings from Stravinsky. I’ve tried to provide as much information about each instance as possible and have listed the track title, the album title, the recording date and location, the title of the borrowed composition, the borrowing strategy employed, and details regarding timing and nature of the borrowing.

(You can sort the tables by clicking on the header cells, though in some cases, that won’t accomplish anything productive!)
