Ravel’s Tombeau de Couperin pays homage to the rich French musical inheritance of the 18th century and to the composer’s comrades who fell in battle. Similarly, Escher’s composition honours Ravel in a distinctly French manner. Inspired by Baroque dances, both works feature intricately textured and nuanced instrumentation.
