Description:
Maurice Ravel (1875-1937), like many French composer of the time, tried his hand at writing the habanera in 1907, a Cuban dance which was very popular in Spain at the end of the 19th century. Originally written as a vocal etude titled Vocalise-étude en forme de Habanera, the work was quickly adapted for various solo instruments and retitled Pièce en Forme de Habanera. This transcription for soprano or tenor saxophone of Ravel's delightful work was completed by Jules Viard and is a great recital or contest selection. Reprint of the French edition.
