Ravel's original version for piano four-hands premiered in Paris at a concert of the Société musicale independante Salle Gaveau on 20 April 1910 with Jeanne Leleu and Geneviève Durony The orchestrated ballet version premiered in Paris on 28 January 1912 at the Théâtre des Arts. "Ravel drew on the past in Ma mère l'oye which is based on stories by Charles Perrault 1628-1703 the Comtesse d'Aulnoy c1650-1705 and Marie Leprince de Beaumont 1711-80 and Chansons madécasses a setting of poems by Evariste-Désiré de Parny 1753-1814 . The simplicity of Ma mère l'oye was a studied evocation of childhood; the influence of Satie's Gymnopédies on the 'Pavane de la belle au bois dormant' and 'Les entretiens de la belle et de la bête' is striking both for its melodic naivety and its repetitive bass movement."

"In 1917 Ravel received a temporary discharge from military duty . In this restful setting he completed Le Tombeau de Couperin much of which had been written in 1914. Each of the piano suite's six pieces was dedicated to the memory of a fallen comrade in arms. The 'Rigaudon' for example was dedicated to the composer's childhood friends Pierre adn Pascal Gaudin the 'Prélude' to Lieutenant Jacques Carlot a cousin of Jacques Durand who had transcribed several of Ravel's works and the 'Toccata' to Captain Joseph de Marliave the husban of Marguerite Long."
