Arranged for solo classical guitar 3 pp intermediate difficulty
Maurice Ravel (1875
-1937)
Ravel was born in the
Basque region of France and much of his work shows a Spanish
influence (this, together with his interest in jazz has produced some
exceptional guitar transcriptions). He was a pupil of Faure and at
first fell, like many contemporary composers, under Debussy's spell.
However, his ascetic and intellectual bents produced from the start a
refinement of composition and orchestration, and development of
melody, all his own. Later music shows a fondness for the rhythmic
features of jazz, and thoughtful incorporation of the innovations of
modern music strong dissonance, atonality etc.
Kaddisch (1914) is one
of two pieces based on Hebrew songs that Ravel wrote for solo voice
and piano.
