Maurice Ravel
Joseph Maurice Ravel (; 7 March 1875 – 28 December 1937) was a French composer, pianist and conductor. He is often associated with
impressionism along with his elder contemporary
Claude Debussy, although both composers rejected the term. In the 1920s and '30s Ravel was internationally regarded as France's greatest living composer.
