The major 7th & 9th at the finis of the Menuet, 10:10, is so sweet and jazzy. Ravel would have come to jazz harmonies with or without America! xxxxx from San Francisco.
This would have been better if they: 1. Played seated. Way too much knee bending for a live performance. I think this is such a bad habit! 2. This is directed to the gents..Why not wear black and white & how about a necktie? It looks good and is professional!
Second movement is my favorite. My husband tried to stump me by playing this the other day to see if I could guess which French composer wrote it. Not only did I guess the composer correctly, I remembered the name of the piece. He couldn't believe it. I told him I had a fantastic Music History teacher - Glenda Thompson at University of Georgia, aka Hurricane Glenda. THE BEST.
