French composer Maurice Ravel was born on this day in 1875

French composer Maurice Ravel was born on this day in 1875.

Along with Claude Debussy, he is remembered as one of the most prominent figures associated with impressionist music - with much of his piano, chamber, vocal and orchestral works having entered today’s standard concert repertoire.

He died as a result of experimental brain surgery - after suffering a head injury in an automobile accident.
