Bolero is a orchestral piece composed by Maurice Ravel, and is one of Ravel’s most famous musical compositions. Bolero premiered in 1928 and represents Ravel’s passion of restyling, and reinventing dance movements. The Bolero is a Spanish dance, that involves rhythmical music. Maurice Ravel took it, and turned it into something that has meaning, and can be expressed in another form of dance called ballet. The piece was actually written for one of Ravels female friends. Her name was Ida Rubinstein, and she was a Russian ballerina. This composition, in a way sounds like a love song. It makes you wonder if Ravel and Rubinstein have some type of love connection? The world will never know!Thursday, December 15, 2011
