A five-movement suite originally written by Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) for solo piano, MIROIRS ('Mirrors') was written between 1904 and 1905, with each movement dedicated to a fellow member of the French avant-garde artist group Les Apaches. Ravel later orchestrated both the third movement called 'Une barque sur l'océan' ('A Boat on the Ocean' - dedicated to Paul Sordes) and the fourth movement named 'Alborada del gracioso' ('The Jester's Aubade' - dedicated to Michel-Dimitri Calvocoressi) himself. Ernesto Halffter later orchestrated the fifth movement ('La vallée des cloches' - 'The Valley of the Bells' - dedicated to Maurice Delage), as did Percy Grainger, while Felix Günther scored movement two ('Oiseaux tristes' - 'Sad Birds' - dedicated to Ricardo Viñes). Orchestrations of movement one ('Noctuelles' - 'Moths' - dedicated to Léon-Paul Fargue) are more recent. This edition of the composer's transcription of 'Une barque sur l'océan' has been edited by Clinton Nieweg and Nancy Bradburd.
