Ravel from Fallen Sparrow by Barry Schrader

"Ravel" is an homage to, not an imitation of the music of composer Maurice Ravel. It is a sort of concerto for piano and electronic music. Each of the three continuous movements is based upon a small amount of musical material from Ravel’s works: the first movement is based on the first two measures of the "Prélude" from "Le tombeau de Couperin;" the second movement is based on the second, third, and fourth measures of the second movement of the "Piano Concerto in G;" and the third movement is based on the first measure of the “dawning” section of "Daphnis et Chloé" and also the last two measures of "La Valse."
