Tzigane For Violin & Piano Urtext

?Virtuoso piece in the style of a Hungarian rhapsody? ? thus reads Ravel?s entry on ?Tzigane? in the so-called ?Autobiographical Sketch?. Composed in 1924, there are three versions of this work: with piano, with orchestra and with luthéal, a device for keyboard instruments to extend the timbre. ?Tzigane? was inspired by the Hungarian-English violinist Jelly d?Aranyi, to whom Ravel had already promised a virtuoso piece in 1922 following Franz Liszt?s ?Hungarian Rhapsodies?. Work progressed slowly andd?Aranyi only received the music four days before the première ? but sh e still gave a brilliant performance.
