Composers notes:
"This is the second of (so far) 2 concert études that I've written for piano. An eclectic fusion of jazz and neo-Romantic styles and techniques, with a barrage of demanding rhythmic and technical features, including odd time signatures, leaps and octaves to keep the performer on their feet. Rather unusually, I began with the end and worked my way backwards from there; I really think this helped with creating a clearer layout in terms of how the piece would progress and how each section would link to one another.
I was really inspired by Nikolai Kapustinwhen writing the étude, and I've included some parts that I think sound a lot like his music as a way of paying homage to his legacy. There are aslo hints of Bartók and Ginastera in this piece too.
I hope you enjoy listening to and performing the Concert Études - please consider rating, favouriting, commenting some feedback and following me for more ‹3"

![Ravel - Pavane pour une infante defunte
Merry Christmas from Asriel! My channels been up for two years now and i really want to thank all of you for the awsome support i always get! Anyways heres a beautiful piece to make your morning better:
Pavane pour une infante défunte (Pavane for a Deceased Infanta) is a work for solo piano by Maurice Ravel, written in 1899 while he was studying at the Conservatoire de Paris under Gabriel Fauré. Ravel also composed an orchestral version in 1910.
Ravel described the piece as an evocation of a pavane that a little princess [infanta] might, in former times, have danced at the Spanish court. The pavane was a slow processional dance that enjoyed great popularity in the courts of Europe during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
This antique miniature is not meant to pay tribute to any particular princess from history, but rather expresses a nostalgic enthusiasm for Spanish customs and sensibilities.
Ravel dedicated the Pavane to his patron, the Princesse de Polignac, and he probably performed the work at the princesss home on at least several occasions. It was first published by Eugène Demets in 1900, but it attracted little attention until the Spanish pianist Ricardo Viñes gave the first performance on 5 April 1902.
