For the final concert, we turn to more exotic flavours in Ravel’s output. Following some early settings of traditional Greek melodies, we focus on Ravel’s later works – his violin sonata with its American jazz and blues influences, the three Madagascan songs with flute and cello and Tziagne, a virtuosic violin work inspired by gypsy tunes.
