Just wish I spoke german or there were english subtitles somewhere.. Simply love Ravel. He was a really exquisite and absolutely original and fresh painter. Thank you for uploading this film anyway!!
@@allinthemind2006 yes, he was a French Impressionist painter. LOL, I know what he was, he's my favorite composer of all time. I wrote "painter" metaphorically
@@metschambel4074 i get you. For me, Ravel’s music paints the listener right onto a canvas, carefully placing us into a far away mystical paradise. Like coming back to a long forgotten home your soul has been yearning for. It’s like a subtly familiar nostalgia, shrouded in childlike wonder and joy. Deeply satisfying
Was shown on BBC2 in the late 1980's. It's a Larry Weinstein documentary from 1987, Gaby was still alive when Ravel's Brain was made in about 1999, as was his pupil. An English language video or DVD might well be sold out there somewhere, my off-air recording is of pretty low quality.
