this feels like taking a shower on a summer day with your light switched off in the bathroom. basically taking a shower in an obscure light

[藤花ひより]

I've never listened C major version...
No doubt it's beautiful, but the impression changes a lot.
so interesting

When listening to this, I envision a lively carp, dashing playfully through the crystal clear water of a mountain pond on a hot spring day with a light breeze. The briskness feels almost overwhelming.

3:37 is magical. These textures and harmonies take us to a place in our minds only Ravel can take us to.

Never heard of this version of c major but it fascinates me

[jeremy]

Wow! i've never listened to it in a different key, its like listening to it brand new.

I have discovered this today while in a really bad mood. Such a calming peace

[SCRIABINIST]

I feel like this is the music that plays in your dreams when you are just floating in the midst of nowhere

[theofficiallobst]

send this to all the c major haters out there

[alexcreativo]

Wow, no tengo ni la menor idea de como llegué aquí pero, la canción tiene tanto que decir, que me deja un gran impacto.

[andyfield]

and it does describe playful water- not heard this before but I am discovering more and more of this man's extraordinarily beautiful dreamy music.

[Chimerabot]

Favorite piece in your playlist for sure. Something about Ravel's music plays with the sound of the key in such a unique way

[susanacordes]

Thank you for posting this. I love Ravel's music. I believe the painting is René Magritte?

[ntprod]

the painting is actually called 'The Existentialist' by Andrew Baines, but still lovely piece though

[Acoustic-Rabbit-Hole]

Thank you for this post. I was just reflecting today that the entire scope of all Western music, if linked to two single composers---it would be Johann Sebastian Bach (structure), and Debussy (free-form.). EVERYTHING that we know in music can be traced to two starting points. Debussy Ying to JS Bach's the Yang.

[franceskinskij]

did you pitch down a recording or there actually a version in C major I'm unaware of?

[kennymelons]

ooh this is nice! Can I have the source of this painting too?
