Ida Rubinstein commissioned Boléro as a ballet for the Paris Opéra in 1928. Ravel had wanted to orchestrate Albéniz's Iberia and found the rights had gone to someone else, so he wrote something original instead. One rhythm, one melody, and a crescendo of around fifteen minutes. It turned out fine.

I’m very fond of looking at the image and connecting elements with the music. I got one for myself and one for my sister who also loves Ravel. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if she got one for me as well.
Also, the package was delivered quickly and in good order. Thank you.
I love my Ravel t-shirt! Soft, like I’ve been wearing it for years and the illustrations are gorgeous. I will be buying another one very soon, I’m sure!
The fabric is very thin and the T-shirt is very narrow compared to other small T-shirts. But we like the design, which is the reason we bought it. A little better quality T-shirt would make these last longer through washes. Thanks
