Hey bro, first of all I'd like you to know that this was an incredible analysis. Just awesome! Certainly, this is one of my favorite pieces. And I would like to give a suggestion for an analysis like this, which is Rêverie, by Claude Debussy. I think there are some interesting jazzy parts! For example there's a Dm9; and there's even a part where Claude uses a G13! I hope you have a good day bro. And once again, it was amazing!!!
Thank you for the kind words and for your suggestion: I've been wanting to analyze a Debussy piece, I was thinking about Claire du Lune (obviously) or something from Children's Corner like Doctor Gradus ad Parnassum or Serenade for the Doll. I will look into Rêverie for sure!
Thanks for making this, I found it very helpful as someone who loves the piece but lacks the ability to analyze it myself. By the way, where can I find the music at the beginning of your video? (Sounds like Ravel string quartet on piano)
Thank you for the kind words! About the intro music: I used a midi file (you can find them online!), opened it in Logic Pro, selected a grand piano sound and added some reverb.
Tkx Meta Andy for clarifying that! Ravel had nothing to do with jazz, certainly not at that period, and certainly not the modern jazz that came in the late 1950s. You could also have said that the jazz that Ravel heard in the 1930s was very not the jazz that uses upper extensions (9, 11, 13s).
Listened to it now (I didn't know that one before), it's really beautiful and indeed a lot of minor 9th and things like that....Thank you for the suggestion! 👍👍
Although it is hard to pinpoint, Jazz originated around the same time as the impressionistic movement and indeed "classical" and "Jazz" composers influenced each other at that time. In fact numerous sources list Jazz as one of Ravel's influences and - as you said - he in turn of course influenced a lot of Jazz musicians!
Lo único “jazzy” en Ravel es algo agregado por quien realiza una recepción contemporánea (en el sentido de actual) de su obra, es decir, con el diario del lunes. Es muy difícil afirmar que el jazz lo influenció, y en todo caso habría que probarlo. La Comparación puede ser didáctica para cierto nivel, pero no es científicamente precisa.
Jazz harmony during this time didnt sound like this at all. Many jazz artists in the 30s and onwards started to take influence from the impressionist sound especially Ravel. Ravel was influenced by more of the rhythmic aspects of the genre. It was very harmoncially simple back then, rarely going beyong the 9th, and using a lot of 6th chords
RUclips recommend this to me. Really enjoyed the video. Please continue!
That means a lot to me! I'm on it ;-)
Thank you! Fascinating stuff. I'll watch in the second video tomorrow to first let this sink in.
Very happy to hear that!
Fascinating video, thank you.
Grossartig u humorvoll. I play jazz and adore Ravel so what could be better than your analysis.!!!
Thank you this was fantastic! ❤
11:02 Yes! Wonderful vid - thank you.
Thanks a lot!

wow so good thx
Thank you!!
Constant Structure. DO you know any classic book for "jazz theory" ?
'The Berklee Book of Jazz Harmony'
@@andynalysis awesome, thanks Andy
Great analysis but what about prelude in A minor from 1913? It sounds a loooot jazzy
Listened to it now (I didn't know that one before), it's really beautiful and indeed a lot of minor 9th and things like that....Thank you for the suggestion! 👍👍
andynalysis you’re welcome 😉!
Love this!!
Thank you so much! :)
Ravel was not influenced by jazz, jazz was influenced by him, Bill Evans especially.
Although it is hard to pinpoint, Jazz originated around the same time as the impressionistic movement and indeed "classical" and "Jazz" composers influenced each other at that time. In fact numerous sources list Jazz as one of Ravel's influences and - as you said - he in turn of course influenced a lot of Jazz musicians!
Wrong.

What’s the piece in the beginning?
It's a piano version (that I made) of the beginning of Ravel's String Quartet in F
it is called Trio, not development. There is no development.It is a counter-dance
Oh yeah true, I don't even remember that I called it a development, that's good that you point that out!
