I started the cleanup, a little, but it can use more help, for any takers. Thanks, DJRafe 03:38, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This new box

[edit]

This new La valse infobox is misleading; the key signature is indeed 3
4
but hides the fact that throughout Ravel has cross rhythms and all manner of rhytmic distortions, so 3
4
is pretty meaningless. Like wise the date of composition – Larner (p170) quotes the orchestral autograph as “Lapras, December 1919 – March 1920. As for the duration, a random selection in my collection go from 10:23 (Munch, naturally), through 10:39, 11:05, 11:13, 11:21, 11:32, 11:37, 12:16, 12:51, 12:59, 13:05, to 13:37 (Jordan); there may be other extremes. All in all, a not very informative box... Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 22:35, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
