For Ravel, the year 1917 was marked by his mother's death and the death of many of his friends who lost their lives in World War I. Hence, the suite he finished that same year can be considered as an elegy. Due to its classical, sonatina-like character, this piece does not radiate an atmosphere of mourning, but rather a light, cool serenity. This arrangement for SATB saxophone quartet is faithful to the original orchestral version. Titles: I. Prélude * II. Forlane * III * Menuet * IV. Rigaudon.

This quartet was written to cater for developing quartets and players, who may not have access to a baritone saxophone. It's a gentle and responsive piece exploiting the homogeneous nature of the saxophone family. This is demonstrated in the way the instruments move together in close harmony.. With more than a touch of jazz to the harmonies, a great short piece for lower grade players.
