In looking at it today, it’s as fresh and new as when it was made in 1982. Cars may change, along with hairstyles and clothes … but the performances, particularly by the children and by E.T. himself, are so honest, timeless, and true, that the film absolutely qualifies to be ranked as a classic. What’s particularly special about today’s concert is that we’ll hear one of our great symphony orchestras, The Philadelphia Orchestra, performing the entire score live, along with the complete picture, sound effects, and dialogue.

A BIOGRAPHY of JOSEPH MAURICE RAVEL by Matthew Dechirico
A BIOGRAPHY OF JOSEPH MAURICE RAVEL by Matthew DeChirico Joseph Maurice Ravel, who lived from March 1875 to December 1937 was a French composer born in the Basque region of France His mother of Basque-Spanish heritage from Madrid Spain had a strong influence on his life and his music. His father was a Swiss inventor and industrialist from France. Both parents provided a happy and stimulating life for Joseph and his younger brother. His parents encouraged his musical pursuits and sent him at age 14 to the Conservatoire de Paris first as a preparatory student and eventually as a piano major. Although intellectually bright and well read, he was not successful academically even as his musicianship matured. Considered “very gifted” he nevertheless was called “somewhat heedless” in his studies. He failed to meet the requirements of earning a competitive medal and was expelled. He returned three years later studying with Gabriel Faure focusing on composition rather than piano. He was again dismissed for having won neither the fugue nor the composition prize. He remained an auditor with Faure until he left the Conservatoire in 1903. During his years at the Conservatoire, Ravel tried numerous times to win the prestigious Prix de Rome but to no avail: he was probably considered too radical by the conservatives. Ravel’s “String Quartet in F” is now a standard work of chamber music, though at the time it was criticized and found lacking academically. His first significant work, “Habanera” for two pianos was later transcribed into the third movement of his “Rapsodie Espagnole”.

The Paris Conservatoire accepted Ravel as a piano student at age 16, and even though he won a piano competition, more than anything he wanted to compose. But the Conservatory was a hard place. He never won the fugue prize, never won the composition prize, never won anything for writing music and they sent him packing. Twice. He studied with the great Gabriel Fauré, in school and out, but he just couldn’t make any headway with the ruling musical authorities. If it wasn’t clunky parallelisms in his counterpoint, it was unresolved chords in his harmony, but whatever the reason, four times he tried for the ultimate prize in composition, the Prix de Rome, and four times he was refused.

(MTO 21.1: Stankis, Ravel's ﬁcolor
Volume 21, Number 1, March 2015 Copyright © 2015 Society for Music Theory Maurice Ravel’s “Color Counterpoint” through the Perspective of Japonisme * Jessica E. Stankis NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: http://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.15.21.1/mto.15.21.1.stankis.php KEYWORDS: Ravel, texture, color, counterpoint, Japonisme, style japonais, ornament, miniaturism, primary nature, secondary nature ABSTRACT: This article establishes a link between Ravel’s musical textures and the phenomenon of Japonisme. Since the pairing of Ravel and Japonisme is far from obvious, I develop a series of analytical tools that conceptualize an aesthetic orientation called “color counterpoint,” inspired by Ravel’s fascination with Chinese and Japanese art and calligraphy. These tools are then applied to selected textures in Ravel’s “Habanera,” and “Le grillon” (from Histoires naturelles ), and are related to the opening measures of Jeux d’eau and the Sonata for Violin and Cello . Visual and literary Japonisme in France serve as a graphical and historical foundation to illuminate how Ravel’s color counterpoint may have been shaped by East Asian visual imagery. Received August 2014 1. Introduction It’s been given to [Ravel] to bring color back into French music. At first he was taken for an impressionist. For a while he encountered opposition. Not a lot, and not for long. And once he got started, what production! —Léon-Paul Fargue, 1920s (quoted in Beucler 1954 , 53) Don’t you think that it slightly resembles the gardens of Versailles, as well as a Japanese garden? —Ravel describing his Le Belvédère, 1931 (quoted in Orenstein 1990 , 475) In “Japanizing” his garden, Ravel made unusual choices, like his harmonies.

Ravel, Maurice (1875-1937) by John Louis Digaetani
Ravel, Maurice (1875-1937) by John Louis DiGaetani Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright ©2002, glbtq, inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Maurice Ravel in 1915. Courtesy Library of Congress Prints and One of France's most distinguished composers, Maurice Ravel was a prolific and Photographs Division. versatile artist who worked in several musical genres, creating stage music (two operas and several ballets), orchestral music, vocal music, chamber music, and piano music. His unique musical language, employing harmonies that are at once ravishing and subtle, made him one of the most influential composers of the twentieth century. Ravel's sexuality has been the subject of intense speculation. Although it is not certain that he was gay, he was rumored to be so. Fiercely protective of his privacy, his most significant emotional relationship seems to have been with his mother. At the same time, however, he embraced a public identity as a cultured dandy, a dapper man-about-town of refined taste and sensibility. A life-long bachelor, Ravel had several significant relationships with men, including one with pianist Ricardo Viñes, a fellow dandy and bachelor, but it is not certain whether these friendships were sexual. He was born Joseph Maurice Ravel on March 7, 1875 at Ciboure, France, near St. Jean de Luz, Basses- Pyrénées, a village close to the French-Spanish border, to a Swiss father and a Basque mother. Ravel's father, who was talented musically, was an engineer. The composer may have inherited from his father the devotion to craftsmanship and meticulous detail that led Igor Stravinsky to describe him as the "Swiss watch-maker of music." Although he was raised in Paris, Ravel was very conscious of his Basque heritage.

And the World Dances: Pieces by Maurice Ravel: a Music-Theatre Collaboration
i ii and the world dances: Pieces by Maurice Ravel A Music-Theatre Collaboration A thesis submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in partial fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors by Nicole Dieker May, 2004 Oxford, OH iii ABSTRACT AND THE WORLD DANCES: PIECES BY MAURICE RAVEL A MUSIC-THEATRE COLLABORATION BY NICOLE DIEKER This thesis describes the year-long process of research and rehearsal that culminated in the group-created performance and the world dances: Pieces by Maurice Ravel. Created in response to the United States’ military involvement in Iraq and inspired by the anti-war music of early twentieth-century composer Maurice Ravel, this process allowed me to direct a group of seven actors and one production designer through a group collaboration that resulted in an original full-length performance. The performance, which was entirely scripted and staged by the group, used music, theatre, and dance to provide a perspective both on Ravel’s experiences during WWI and on a contemporary retracing of our current political situation. iv v and the world dances: Pieces by Maurice Ravel: A Music-Theatre Collaboration by Nicole Dieker Approved by: _________________________, Adviser Dr. Jimmy Bickerstaff _________________________, Reader Julia Guichard _________________________, Reader Dr. Eftychia Papanikolaou Accepted by: __________________________, Director, University Honors Program vi vii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Jimmy Bickerstaff for his help and support as adviser to the thesis process, and Julia Guichard and Dr. Eftychia Papanikolaou for serving as thesis readers.
