Description
DescriptionDaphnis et Chloé by Maurice Ravel is considered by many to be a true masterpiece. Take a minute to get the scoop! Fun FactDiaghilev had originally intended Daphnis et Chloé to form the centrepiece of the 1910 season, and although the first piano draft was ready by the beginning of May, this was already far too late, leaving the door wide open for Igor Stravinsky to score his first great success with The Firebird. This seems to have inspired Ravel to get a move on and by the end of the summer he was hard at work on the orchestration.__________________________________________________________________About Steven, HostSteven is a Canadian composer & actor living in Toronto.
