Daphnis and Chloe in its complete form is astounding.

Thanks for this month's selection. Back in the old, old
days it was Playboy magazine who named Bolero as the best
for making whoopee. Just a tidbit to balance out a
previous snooty remark.

Thank you for the information. The choreographer’s comments are priceless!
Maybe I will have to give Ravel another go, and find something of his that I do like.
This is what I love so much about this thread; so much knowledge that I would be missing.

Much of late Mahler could easily pass for Schoenberg.

Here's La Tombeau de Couperin.
Due to time constraints, it just didn't make the cut today.

Daphnis and Chloe in its complete form is astounding. My mistake. I thought I had both suites.

It would be the arrival of a desert caravan, beginning with a few personages, and ending with the entire caravan filling up the stage at the end. Performed that way, it would work. How about theme music for the Dustin Hofffman movie Ishtar?
Cheers!

Did they use Bolero as the title music for Ishtar? I would not know, as I was one of the many, many, many, many, many people who did not see that film.
Comedian Albert Brooks did a funny parody of Bolero on a comedy album from the late 70's early 80's. It was after Bolero became famous in the movie "10". Supposedly, Albert Brooks had discovered lyrics to the Bolero which made it even sexier than in its original orchestral version. The lyrics were pretty hilarious.
To: Sans-Culotte
Sorry, I don't know, I never saw the movie.
Cheers!
