    Really impressive. Ravel is such a hard composer to get around, his music is so deep and his influences so wide, and yet he sounds like no other composer. To be able to reproduce his distinctive, yet very subtle style shows how much Nahre is great at what she does.

    You know what I love about Ravel? The fact that he doesn't waste a single note, sometimes he leaves gaps in melodic lines that can be left up to interpretation but they're not missed because another melody fills in, it's crazy efficient

  • @Stradtastic

    The part where you discussed the types of ideas Ravel uses; nostalgic, sweet, longing, BUBBLES, etc
    This quite possibly the most accurate explanation of Ravel I've ever heard. He is my favorite composer by far, and I have struggled for years to describe him as well as you did in this video!

    I love Ravel, and as a composer myself I always tried to capture the structural elements of his compostions in order to build my own repertoire. By watching your video, I saw that many of his characteristics are rather subjective, and are described by "poetry-like wording" ("delicate flower in a block of ice"). I also used to think like that, and seeing you having a similar thinking is interesting for me as a composer as well.
    Great video, btw! Always like those!

    Rach and Ravel were my favourite composers through university around ten years ago, and Ravel's music has been super influential for me as I moved more towards composition. Miroirs and Gaspard were so much fun despite their challenges and paint such vivid pictures. I tried picking up his Toccata last year but stopped around half way through, it's a bloody tough nut to crack! Incredibly gorgeous. I highly recommend anyone reading this to check out Collard's performance of Ravel's Toccata. Short and sweet!

      Emimi100. Ivo's Scarbo, if it's from the same performance that I think you mean is the most brutally executed reading of this masterpiece. He literally beats the piano into submission to his artistic will. This recording is of ivo in his prime. Positively superhuman. And Ravel's composition..not a another piece of piano music like it. It's actually metaphysically scary as hell. Like it's from a fever induced nightmare of the faceless human form shadow person (Scarbo, the boogy man) in the long black trenchcoat and wide brimmed hat, that we've all seen or felt as children. I saw him, Scarbo, many times when in a fever dream as a child.

    Ravel is probably my favourite composer, for many of the reasons you've mentioned. Tone colour, lyrical melody and sublime orchestration. If you know the novel Le Grand Mealne by Alain Fournier, then you need no other story. Alan Fournier died in WW1 and Ravel's Tombeau de Couperin is dedicated to friends who died in that war. His music is a fit for that novel.
    The novel, short, is well worth investing some time in.

    I would define Ravel's work as 'modernist'. Leave the impressions to Debussy.

      Debussy hated to be associated with the Impressionism : "Impressionism is for painting 🎨" he has to say

    Here's a comment to boost your stats. I LOVE how much effort you put into editing these videos. They're overflowing with so much information. They're so comprehensive and flow together really well. I don't have a background in music but I still enjoy your videos very much because your videos are so friendly. Especially your use of metaphors. the playing was beautiful.

    Hey Nahre, the quality of the video is 360p, is that with everyone too or am I the only one?

      Possibly due to us being early

      Usually it's ready by the time it says "Finished processing" but for some reason it's not switching yet. Sorry about that, maybe check back in a bit! :D

      UA-cam is throttling video quality in some locations, I believe. But the audio sounds very good, so I'm happy.

      I recall having read recently that UA-cam decided to reduce the bandwidth of videos to face the increasing traffic from people stuck at home and binging the Internet all around the world... At least in Europe.
      Quick check: try and see another video which you know is HD, see if it still is.

    Mind-blowing. One of my favourite composers and there it all is by numbers, unbelievable and rather beautiful.

    Ravel was the best composer of water-based music, like if u agree

    I think Ravel's music actually is "watery" but I like that. Well, not including Bolero. That is not watery.

      Yeah, that would be considered "marchy".

      Like something like Une Barque Sur Lotion is so impressionistic, but his string quartet is so strict. He’s just amazing

    Seeing your battle through ideas, in the pursuit of his style really tees him up to seem the most formidable creative force you've replicated on your channel. The final piece you assembled knocked it out of the park.
