This recital contains several of Ravel's most outstanding and popular works for piano performed by Francois-Joel Thiollier. These include the virtuosic Gaspard de la nit, inspired by the sinister poetry of Bertrand, the atmospheric Miroirs, the Alborada del gracioso, one of Ravel's most famous works and tombeau de Couperin, a moving tribute to a great musical predecessor of Ravel; so giving a perfect introduction to the world of one of the greatest French composers of the last century.
