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”.

    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 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.

Arthur Berger introduced the term octatonic in his landmark 1963 article in which he identified the scale as a useful framework for analyzing much of Stravinsky's music. Following Berger, Pieter van den Toorn discussed in greater depth the nature of Stravinsky's octatonic practice, describing the composer's manipula- tions of the harmonic and melodic resources provided by the scale.

But his parents insisted on a “sensible” career, and Chabrier spent several decades as a minor clerk in the Ministry of the Interior who dabbled in composition in his spare time. Then in the spring of 1882 Chabrier and his wife took a vacation trip to Spain, where – like so many other French composers – he was intoxicated by Spanish music. Back in France, he noted down several characteristic melodies and dance rhythms that he had heard in Andalusia, and from these he fashioned what he called a fantasia for solo piano. When the conductor Charles Lamoureux heard Chabrier play this piece, he urged him to orchestrate it. Lamoureux led the premiere of the orchestral version, now titled España, in Paris on November 4, 1883. It was an instant success, and Chabrier woke the next morning to find himself famous. Even now, 130 years later, España remains his best-known work.

Ten months later, he moved out of his apartment in the rue Monsieur le Prince, had all his furniture, objets d’art, pictures and manuscripts sent to Dieppe to be housed in a museum there, and set off for Andalusia and thence to Cádiz.

  • Introduction
    Introduction Two months after the premiere of Maurice Ravel’s Histoires naturelles in 1908, Claude Debussy wrote to the music critic Louis Laloy, describing his fellow com- poser with a pair of unusual terms: “I agree with you in acknowledging that Ravel is exceptionally gifted, but what irritates me is his posture as a ‘faiseur de tours,’ or better yet, as an enchanting fakir, who can make flowers spring up around a chair. Unfortunately, a trick is always prepared, and it can only astonish once!”1 Neither “faiseur de tours” (performer of tricks) nor “fakir” was in common usage in the early twentieth century, though the latter term would have been known from Judith Gautier’s historical novel La Conquête du paradis (1890), whose title aptly captures its romanticized, colonialist perspective on eighteenth-century India. By linking him to conjurers—whether theatrical entertainers or exoticized thauma- turgists—Debussy impugned the long-term prospects of Ravel’s work. How could a trick with a looming expiration date produce music that would withstand repeat performances without unveiling its mysteries or losing its luster? Ravel’s music, for all its silvery charm, would soon tarnish; the weight of passing time would grind it to dust. To hear it once was to exhaust its secrets. But Debussy’s criticism was rapidly turned on its head by critics, biographers, and scholars who found in the language of conjuring the words they needed to combat Ravel’s detractors. Laloy, for one, compared Ravel to a sorcerer in a 1909 review of Gaspard de la nuit and described him as a “magician of sounds” when 1.
