for SATB (with divisions) and organ. Maurice Ravel's popular Pavane pour une infante defunte is here arranged for mixed voices and organ, allowing choirs to perform this beautiful staple of the orchestral repertoire for the first time. Rupert Gough's arrangement sets the words of the 'Requiem aeternam' to the existing melody, and features a characterful and active organ part that underpins the sustained vocal lines. The piece has been recorded by The Choir of Royal Holloway on the album Messe da pacem.

Influenced by the elegant 18th-century harpsichord works of Couperin, Rameau and Scarlatti, Le Tombeau de Couperin consists of "Prelude," "Forlane," "Menuet," and "Rigaudon." The uninterrupted eight waltzes of Valses Nobles et Sentimentales, orchestrated in 1912 to serve as music for a ballet, abound with lilting rhythms and unexpected harmonic subtleties. This volume of two inspired works will be valued additions to the libraries of musicians, music lovers, and admirers of Ravel.

Composed in 1914, Ravel's sole work for the classical ensemble of piano, violin and cello was first heard in Paris at the Salle Gaveau on January 28, 1915, with Alfredo Casella on the piano, Gabriel Willaume on violin and Louis Feuillard on cello. The work was quickly recognized as a worthy addition to an already wealthy repertoire and remains popular today. The score reproduced here was first issued in 1915 by Durand. As with all PLP scores a percentage of each sale is donated to the amazing online archive of free music scores and recordings, IMSLP - Petrucci Music Library.
