Keyser Söze - show quoted text - Is Ravel’s orchestration a homage, a tribute, or a cover? I like it the way the composer wrote it. Seeing he was a pianist and wrote it for piano, this is the version you’d appreciate https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UpjHcuuOPLo No, Tim, Bolero was NOT written *for* the piano. Like many composers*, Ravel composed on the piano, but the piece was not written for the piano. It was written for ballet, to be performed by an orchestra. *Mozart used the keyboard instruments of his day to noodle out his notes, tunes, compositions. |

Ravel later orchestrated the piano work and, in my opinion, turned it into something it was never meant to be. Here is the most famous performance of Pictures, by the incredible Russian pianist Sviatoslav Richter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNq3VMzqXqM |
