Description:
The 'Boléro' made Maurice Ravel world-famous, but not happy. The composition, which he conceived as a mere instrumentation study, became one of his greatest successes both as a ballet and a concert piece - much to his displeasure. Although the theme of the Boléro with its 16 bars is not without melodic charm, it remains as such without development or variation. The Boléro achieves its tremendous suggestive power solely through the permanent change of the orchestra's timbres with a simultaneous incessant increase in sound, unfolding its typical 'variety of monotony'.
This served Ravel as a layout for the demonstration of his brilliant and highly praised art of orchestration. It is precisely this circumstance that makes the Boléro seem excellently suited for the queen of instruments - the organ - to express the entire color palette of the specific organ in all its nuances. This organ arrangement therefore deliberately dispenses with any registration indications and confines itself to references to the original orchestration of the orchestra by Ravel. (Otto Depenheuer)
