Today is Maurice Ravel’s birthday, which seemed as good a reason as any to post a few video clips of some favorite pieces. Enjoy!
String Quartet in F major: Assez vif – Très rythmé (1902-03)
L’heure espagnole - Finale (1907-09)
Gaspard de la Nuit: Scarbo (1909)
Deux mélodies hébraïques: “Kaddisch” (1914)
Piano Trio: Final (1914)
Piano Concerto in G major: Adagio assai (1929-31)
Don Quichotte à Dulcinée (1932-33)
