This is seriously one of my favorite pieces to listen to. Just because of the composer Ravel, and the very romantic feel that he composes his songs in.
Novice en matière de musique classique, ma connaissance sur Ravel s'arrêtait au fameux Boléro. Je découvre ici une oeuvre sublime magnifiquement interprétée. Bravo.
Yes, man. Amazing and beautiful. Sometimes I wonder, if there are a lot people who does not know this music (they will dead without listening it), I guess people do not have cultural concerns. It's a pity.
Without Wagner and the Russians as well as thereafter the sweet touch of the French style of Debussy this piece would have not come to be. Totally dreamlike with very internally meditative moments. Earlier the "Gaspard de la Nuit" as well as the Opera "L'Hourve Espagnole" showed a maturity in this gorgeously impresionistcal style of music. The rhythmical energy toward the end is absolutely stupendous.
