Maurice Ravel

Joseph-Maurice Ravel (March 7, 1875 – December 28, 1937) was a French composer and pianist, known especially for the subtlety, richness, and poignancy of his music and generally considered to be one of the major composers of the 20th century.

While participating in the American Celebration of Music in France, visiting groups can explore the history and music of Ravel while visiting his birthplace in Ciboure, the Ravel house (Montfort l’Amaury, Le Belvédère) which is now the Musée Maurice Ravel or his burial place at Levallois-Perret.
