Maurice Ravel
Joseph Maurice Ravel is a French composer, pianist and conductor. He is often associated with Impressionism with his contemporaries Claude Debussy, although both composers rejected the term. During the 1920s and 1930s, Ravel was internationally regarded as the greatest living composer in France. Born into a family passionate about music, Ravel attended the best music school in France, the Conservatoire de Paris; he was not taken seriously by his conservative establishment, where his bias caused a scandal. After leaving the conservatory, Ravel found his own path as a composer, developing a distinct style and combining elements of modernism, baroque, neoclassicalism and in his later works was jazz. He enjoys experimenting with musical form, as in his most famous work, Boléro, in which repetition replaces development.
