''The Spider's Feast'' (''Le festin de l'araignée''), Op. 17, is a 1912 "ballet-pantomime" with music by the French composer Albert Roussel (1869-1937) to a scenario by Gilbert de Voisins. ==The ballet== The ballet depicts insect life in a garden, evoked by the flute solo at the opening and close of the work, and where insects are trapped in the spider's web, but when the spider prepares to begin its feast, it in turn is killed by a praying mantis. The funeral procession of the mayfly concludes the work. The full ballet lasts approximately half an hour.
