Item no.: 796651
Maurice Ravel's Piano Concerto in G major was composed between 1929 and 1931. The concerto was deeply infused with jazz idioms and harmonies, which, at the time, were highly popular in Paris as well as the United States, where Ravel was traveling on a piano tour. Ravel remarked that "The most captivating part of jazz is its rich and diverting rhythm.
Jazz is a very rich and vital source of inspiration for modern composers and I am astonished that so few Americans are influenced by it." Swiss arranger Simon Scheiwiller transcribed the concerto for piano with accompaniment of a Symphonic Band with great respect to the original instrumentation.
