I can't sleep because I'm thinking about this girl. I thought about listening to some Ravel songs on RUclips as it helps me sleep thanks to the beautiful melodies... and I'm now here, on an amateur video showing a painting of my hometown called Trouville S/ Mer in Normandy (France). I deeply think things are all correlated, all linked together as a sign. Sign of a beautiful life
I do agree with you, and I regret that Ravel said later that his "Menuet Antique" was a minor piece of music. It is indeed very forceful and charming piece.
A youth work of Ravel which is very influenced by Chabrier, but is very ooriginal and peronal also. There is a splendid modal dadenza at the end of the theme. The melodic middle is played a bit too fast in my taste. It is a delicious melody in the style of Chabrier whixh would ddeserve to be played ina more melodic way.

beautiful comment! :)
Ravel was only twenty when he wrote this and it's wonderfully inventive. A great harbinger of what was to come.

one of my favorites by Ravel.
I loved francois's playing ever, but now I love this playing.
lmpresionismo musical... su consagración!!

Admittedly a non-musician, I cannot understand the relatively low esteem in which this work is held (even by the composer).
My favorite Ravel piece since my youth. Love his other piano works but this one is special.
