And Ravel, too

The person I live with, who reads every single word of the blog, pointed out the fact I slighted Maurice Ravel in my post yesterday about the Seattle Symphony. So, I'm correcting that omission here, and also attaching a UTube video (for the first time!) to impress my daily editor.

Ravel's Pavane for a Dead Princess is a lovely piece of music. It was written as a piano solo, and later rearranged for orchestra. When you listen, it's easy to understand why it became immediately popular.
