Maurice Ravel: Daphnis Et Chloe Suite No. 2: Orchestra: Miniature Score

This 20th century orchestral masterpiece offers a rich musical setting of a pastoral Greek fable by Longus. The lush scoring dramatically displays the composer's genius for transmuting a traditional musical idiom into a fresh and stirring language of its own ranging from audacious and driving to softly and hauntingly beautiful.Reproduced here from the original French edition the score appears with rehearsal-numbered movements. Ideal for classroom or home study.
