Andre Rio: Ravel's last dance work, Bolero
Composed in 1928 by the French composer Maurice Ravel, Bolero is Ravel's last dance work, one of his finest works in dance music, and an important masterpiece of Twentieth-century French symphonic music.
Joseph Maurice Ravier Joseph Maurice Ravel (7 March 1875 – 28 December 1937)
Friends who don't listen to classical music may be dazed just by seeing the name. But in fact, this work can also be regarded as a classical music song that often appears in life. Because it is often played as an episode in tv shows or stage plays, it is also often adapted. As long as this melody is played, perhaps many friends will have an epiphany, it turns out to be this music.
The piece requires a large symphony orchestra to play, including saxophones, organs, celestes, English pipes, and so on.
"Bolero" was originally the name of a Spanish dance song, usually with four or three beats, slightly faster speed, and a castanet hitting rhythm. But Ravel's dance piece, borrowed only from the title "Bolero", is actually a free dance piece and one of Ravel's few works written specifically for the band.
When the music premiered in New York in 1929, it shocked many people in the music industry and was described by the American press as an "explosion". Although many musicians at the time dismissed Ravel's novel approach to composition, we have to admit today that it was a pretty good and exciting work.
The rhythm of this piece is exactly the same from beginning to end, the beat speed is unchanged, and the dance music only changes from beginning to end, so it is a novelty in the whole classical music.
Today, it has long become one of the most popular pieces in the music playlist, and many listeners will say that when listening to it, they "seem to have magic, and they hear the ending from the beginning in one breath, and they are not crazy."

In terms of music arrangement, the orchestra and snare drum sound are perfectly matched, and the mood is full. The interaction of the sound of the instrument makes the listener feel sad and relishful.
In terms of atmosphere creation, he borrowed the effect of light and shadow. This performance scene seems to be shrouded in fog, both romantic and psychedelic, which is amazing!
The gripping music has a different magic that is transmitted to all listeners through the musicians. Listening to beautiful songs makes people feel comfortable, and low music will make people sad, and even can't help but cry. These phenomena also exist in Andre Rio's musical performances, jumping and laughing, and crying when they listen to it.
As the inheritor of the "waltz" music, André Rio and Ravel have a common creative pursuit: the old is broken and the new is unique.
Every song he's ever played has been adapted, so the melody is more suitable for the moment. The fusion of pop song elements makes all those who have listened to his music praise, and the concert is full of norms. It is well known that every July concert tickets are pre-sold six months in advance, every year.
2020, Love You Love You. The new year kicks off with André Rio's musical journey. Just after Christmas and cross-Chinese New Year's Eve, his first stop will open tomorrow night.
