We soak up the famous Bolero by Ravel at the Philharmonie de

For the 150 years since the birth of Maurice Ravelthe Philharmonie de Paris attacks the composer's life through the prism of his greatest masterpiece: The Bolero. A unique piece which, surprisingly, seems to bring together all aspects of the musician's lifeas well as all its values. A work as contradictory as it is innovative, which continues to fascinate almost a century after its creation, which we explore here through images and sounds, for a immediate trip in Spain. Olé!
