Ravel Essential – Parallel Impressions

"Parallel Impressions" is a literary and cinematographic extension of the Alcobaça Music Festival's "Essential Ravel" programme, which this year intensely celebrates the composer Maurice Ravel (1875-1937), a key figure in musical impressionism.
Between books, films, talks and sound environments, this parallel programme offers other perspectives and readings on classical music and, in particular, on Ravel's legacy.
Throughout the month of July, Armazém das Artes invites you to listen to Ravel discs from its collection and also hosts two book presentations.

Synopsis

Mami Pereira presents the 3rd edition of her book The Cough (2021), with an uncomplicated and good-humoured approach to classical music. Among the 50 chronicles dedicated to composers, there is praise for Maurice Ravel and his masterpieces, such as the Piano Concerto in G major and, of course, the Bolero, ‘a piece with salero’, as the author characterises it.
With its light and engaging writing, this book is a celebration of life, art and classical music, which captivates both its aficionados and the lay public.
