Description:Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 53. Chapters: Marie Curie, Brigitte Bardot, Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, Guy de Maupassant, Pierre Curie, Maurice Ravel, Simone de Beauvoir, Jacques Prevert, Gustave Courbet, Georges Brassens, Emile Littre, John Vianney, Honore Daumier, Georges Bernanos, Philippe Seguin, Marcel Ayme, Bernard Clavel, Leo Ferre. Excerpt: Joseph-Maurice Ravel (March 7, 1875 - December 28, 1937) was a French composer known especially for his melodies, orchestral and instrumental textures and effects. Much of his piano music, chamber music, vocal music and orchestral music has entered the standard concert repertoire. Ravel's piano compositions, such as Jeux d'eau, Miroirs, Le tombeau de Couperin and Gaspard de la nuit, demand considerable virtuosity from the performer, and his orchestral music, including Daphnis et Chloe and his arrangement of Modest Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition, uses a variety of sound and instrumentation. Ravel is perhaps known best for his orchestral work Bolero (1928), which he considered trivial and once described as "a piece for orchestra without music." According to SACEM, Ravel's estate earns more royalties than that of any other French composer. According to international copyright law, Ravel's works have been in the public domain since January 1, 2008, in most countries. In France, due to anomalous copyright law extensions to account for the two world wars, they will not enter the public domain until 2015.
