Joseph Maurice Ravel
Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) was a French composer and pianist recognised for his significant contributions to 20th-century music. Born in Ciboure, France, Ravel showed prodigious talent from a young age and received formal training at the Paris Conservatoire. He gained fame for his innovative compositions, which blended elements of Impressionism, neoclassicism, and jazz influences.
Ravel’s notable works include “Boléro,” “Daphnis et Chloé,” and “Piano Concerto in G major.” His meticulous attention to detail and exquisite orchestrations showcased his mastery of musical craftsmanship. Ravel’s music remains popular for its evocative melodies, rich harmonies, and vibrant rhythmic complexities. His profound influence on modern classical music solidifies his place as one of the most celebrated composers of the 20th century.
He wrote numerous pieces incorporating the flute including:
- “Pièce en forme de habanera” for flute and piano
- “Pavane pour une infante défunte” arranged for flute and piano
- “Sonatine” for flute, violin, and harpsichord (later arranged for flute and piano)
- “Duo for violin and cello” arranged for flute and cello
- “Chansons madécasses” for voice, flute, cello, and piano
