Piano - SMP Level 10 (Advanced)
SKU: AP.6328
Composed by Maurice Ravel. Edited by Maurice Hinson. Masterworks; Piano Solo; Solo; Solo Small Ensembles. Alfred Masterwork Edition. Impressionistic; Masterwork. 16 pages. Alfred Music #00-6328. Published by Alfred Music (AP.6328).UPC: 038081013039. English.
Dedicated to Gabriel Faure, Ravel prefaces this piece of liquid poetry with a line by Henri de Regnier: The river god laughs at the water as it tickles him. Ravel indicated that he wanted the work played in the way you play Liszt, and the technique required to play it hearkens to Franz Liszt, but the sonorities and transparency are definitely impressionistic. Polytonality, rippling arpeggios, tremolos, trills, double notes, major seconds, sevenths, ninths and other high-numbered chords are featured.

The best of Ravel
This is simply Ravel at his best. Very difficult, so it will be a long-term project for me. The note spacing is nice and the music is very legible, not too small. Excellent.

well worth the money
The readability and paper quality are good, and the fingering is also useful. There are some misprints though; at bars 35, 69 and 71. Notice that the 8va applies to both note lines at bars 67-69 and 72. All in all a good edition of a beautiful piece for a reasonable price. For technically adept players only.

Heard it on NPR. Arrangement is great but to hard for my wife, who I bought it for. Definitely level 10!
