A supplement included the first movement of Ravel?s Sonata as well as works contributed by Debussy?s friends Stravinsky Satie Dukas Bartok and de Falla to name only a few. This 1st movement of Ravel?s Sonata of which the autograph is lost then developed into a large scale four movement chamber music work utilizing a more modern music vocabulary than found in almost any other Ravel composition. Bärenreiter?s scholarly-critical edition the first ever of this masterpiece presents the work in two performing scores. It contains anintroduction on the history of the work reflecting Ravel?s work and rehearsals with violinist Hélène Jourdan-Morhange and cellist Maurice Maréchal. Sources for this new edition include the engraved copy the personal autograph scores (with earlier versions of some passages) which were used to rehearse the work and the first edition scores with emendations by Jourdan-Morhange and Maréchal.

'Ma grand-tante s'appelait Valentine. Elle était née le 4 février 1888. A l'âge de 96 ans, elle se sentit fatiguée de vivre. Mais elle s'était fixée un but: devenir centenaire. A l'agonie peu avant ses 100 ans, elle revint à la vie pour demander: 'Combien de jours reste-t-il ?' Il restait six jours. Elle a murmuré: 'Je tiendrai. Je tiendrai'. Elle est morte le 4 février 1988. Pour son faire-part de décès, elle avait choisi ce verset de la bible: 'Elle a fait ce qu'elle a pu'. Avant de mourir elle avait brodé un drap à mes initiales. Je l'offris à mon ami Hervé, alors gravement malade, en souvenir de cette nuit, lointaine déjà, où il avait refusé de partager mon lit. Je l'invitai à dormir un peu avec moi. Et puis, j'aimais à croire qu'ayant été brodé par une femme devenue centenaire grâce à une volonté farouche, ce drap, auréolé de foi, lui transmettrait sa force' (Sophie Calle, Des Histoires vraies - Actes Sud).Le cri de l'étoffe n'est pas une illustration du texte de Sophie Calle. Mais il résonne en creux dans mon travail sur les étoffes. Cette pièce est dédiée à Gérard Pesson.Colin Roche2 exemplaires de cette partition constituent le matériel / Violon Et Violoncelle
