Ha! I'm a massive Ravel fan.  I recognize the Jeux d'eau little hook at the beginning! :P What piano VST are you using? I need to reevaluate the ones I have on hand.

Anyways... feedback. Overall very good. To try to find constructive feedback on this gorgeous track, I'd say maybe it potentially doesn't feel as close to reflecting the theme as it could, but that's a small matter because it still works excellently.  And, maybe it doesn't deviate enough from Ravel's existing works, recognizing that little hook and knowing his works really well I can hear which pieces were inspiration. I've been working on doing a lot of improvising to try to intuit Ravel's musical language because it's like its own genre of music. Other "impressionists" don't take me to the same world. To me, Ravel himself completely invented a new style that hasn't been adequately developed. It would be like if there was only one composer of Baroque music.

Anyways, good stuff, love geeking out about Ravel.

Thank you so much!! I’m just playing it in using my NORD actually. Nothing better than the real thing, but it’s the closest I’ve got (means I can’t mess with MIDI so I have to perform the recording just right, which is time-consuming)

Loving the Ravel passion!!! Ravel’s music is like Clockwork, the way he writes for piano is so alien compared to every other composer - such a genius. I admit it was a little derivative due to time constraints, I wish I could sit with the whole catalogue longer and draw from his music more conceptually, but he certainly wasn’t my only influence - just a convenient springboard.

Thank you for the feedback and kind words :)
