Char les Camilleri (1931 - 2009) was a Maltese composer. As a teenager, he composed a number of works based on folk music and legends of his native Malta. He moved from his early influences by Maltese folk music to a musical form in which nothing is fixed and his compositions evolve from themselves with a sense of fluency and inevitability. He composed over 100 works for orchestra, chamber ensemble, voice and solo instruments. Camilleri's work has been performed throughout the world and his research of folk music and improvisation, the influences of the sounds of Africa and Asia, together with the academic study of European music, helped him create a universal style. Camilleri is recognized in Malta as one of the major composers of his generation. He died on 3 January 2009 at the age of 77. His funeral took place two days later at Naxxar, his long-time town of residence. Flags across Malta were flown at half-mast in tribute to him. Just like Bach's 6 suites for cello solo, these 6 arabesques are composed of a number of distinct movements which follow the suite principle. The melodies in these 6 arabesques are influenced by Mediterranean folk music.

After Bolero and La Valse, a third, often-played work by Ravel is now entering Breitkopf's orchestral program, obviously in a Breitkopf Urtext edition that was supervised by the Ravel expert Jean-Francois Monnard. As a compositional destination around 1900, Spain was in the air, as is also confirmed by Debussy's Iberia. Monnard's incisive preface brilliantly draws links between the two composers who, along with Igor Stravinsky, were working in Paris during those years. The Rapsodie espagnole qualifies above all as a masterpiece of Ravel's instrumental magic. This fireworks of orchestration demands a reliable and purchasable performance material that can grace the library of every professional orchestra.The Rapsodie espagnole qualifies above all as a masterpiece of Ravel's instrumental magic - a fireworks of orchestration!
