Pièce en forme de Habanera, arrangement(s) for solo instrument & keyboard (1907)

Peter Schmalfuss, piano
Elisabeth Ganter, clarinet

Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) originally composed his Pièce en forme de Habanera as a Vocalise etude en forme de Habanera for bass voice and piano in 1907. A song without words, Ravel took as his model the slow, sultry Spanish dance called the habanera -- like most French composers of the period, Ravel was fascinated by the music of Spain -- and used it as the basis of a blindingly difficult virtuoso exercise for the bass voice. Ravel later transcribed the work for cello and piano -- a transcription that retains all the virtuosity of the original -- and from this several other arrangements have been made for virtually any and all instruments with aspirations to virtuoso glory.
