Composed by Maurice Ravel. Arranged by Henk van Lijnschooten. Arrangements of Classical Compositions. Classic Arrangement. Recorded on Music By French Composers (ML.311019720). Full set. Duration 17 minutes, 16 seconds. Molenaar Edition #012064070. Published by Molenaar Edition (ML.012064070).Dit werk werd gecomponeerd in 1928 voor het ballet van Ida Rubenstein. De muzikale bouw is uiterst simpel, men kan zeggen geniaal van eenvoud. Een Spaans aandoend thema wordt zó vaak, bijna onveranderd, door verschillende instrumenten of combinaties van instrumenten herhaald, dat het tenslotte de luisteraar obsedeert.De kracht van dit werk ligt niet in de melodische ontwikkeling, die afwezig is, maar uitsluitend in de kleuring van het thema. Op de achtergrond hoort men, eveneens onveranderd, een oriëntaals rithme, de hartklop van het gehele werk.De bewerking volgt zoveel mogelij de authentieke instrumentatie van Ravel waarbij de oorspronkelijke strijkerspartijen weloverwogen in houtblazers zijn verwerkt.
This work was composed in 1928 for the ballet of Ida Rubenstein. The musical structure is very simple, so to say, but briljant in its simplicity.A Spanish-like theme is so often repeated – almost unaltered – by different instruments or instrumental groups, that the listener gradually becomes captivated by its intensity.The strong point of this work is not formed by its melodic development – which is not there -, but almost exclusively by the orchestral colouring of the theme. This done over a sustained (ostinato) rhythm which froms the heartbeat of the entire work.The arrangement by Henk van Lijnschooten follows Ravel’s original instrumentation as closely as possible; the stringparts however have been allotted to the woodwinds with due care.
