Ravel's "Pavane pour une infante defune" in a fantastic arrangement for eight horns by Leigh Martinet. $7.00

Pavane pour une infante dÌ©funte (Pavane for a Dead Princess) is a well-known piece written for solo piano by the French composer Maurice Ravel in 1899 when he was studying composition at the Conservatoire de Paris under Gabriel FaurÌ©. Ravel also published an orchestrated version of thePavane in 1910. A typical performance of the piece lasts between six and seven minutes.

Ravel described the piece as "an evocation of a pavane that a little princess might, in former times, have danced at the Spanish court". The pavane was a slow processional dance that enjoyed great popularity in the courts of Europe during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
