$109.99 - $675.00
Ravel's Le Tombeau de Couperin Suite M.68a was originally composed as a piano suite between 1914 and 1917 and later transcribed for orchestra. The piece pays homage to the French Baroque composer François Couperin, blending Baroque dance forms with Ravel’s distinct modern style. Through his meticulous orchestration, Ravel transforms the original piano textures, adding depth and color to the music. The orchestral version allows the composer to explore a broader range of timbres, enriching the overall sound while maintaining the elegance and precision of the original work.
The Suite has 4 movements:
1. Prélude. Vif
2. Forlane. Allegretto
3. Menuet. Allegro moderato
4. Rigaudon. Assez vif
