First Edition. Orenstein: Ravel Man and Musician p. 228. L'Heure Espagnole was first performed in Paris at the OpÃ©ra Comique on May 19 1911 to a libretto closely based on the play by Franc-Nohain. Madame Jean Cruppi the dedicatee convinced the director of the OpÃ©ra-Comique Albert CarrÃ© to stage the work in spite of its risquÃ© story line. "In a letter of 17 May 1911 two days before the premiÃ¨re Ravel wrote: 'What I've tried to do is fairly ambitious: to breathe new life into the Italian opera buffa: following only the principle . the French language like any other has its own accents and inflections of pitch.' At the same time he referred to Musorgsky's Zhenit'ba 'The Marriage' as the work's only real ancestor. It also forms part of a larger group of Spanish works that spanned Ravel's whole career and the necessary Spanish colouring provided him with a reason for a virtuoso use of the modern orchestra which he felt was 'perfectly designed for underlining and exaggerating comic effects'." Roger Nichols in Grove Music Online. Indeed composer-writer Reynaldo Hahn somewhat critically referred to Ravel's technique as "a sort of transcendent jujitsu." Noted music critic Georges Jean-Aubry 1882-1949 "belonged to a circle of avant-garde musicians and littÃ©rateurs and was a frequent contributor to periodicals. Encouraged by his 20-year friendship with Debussy he wrote enthusiastically in support of contemporary French composers noting similarities between their music and that of the 18th century Couperin Rameau. He wrote perceptively in praise of Spanish composers Falla Granados AlbÃ©niz but rejected German Romanticism as expressed in the works of Wagner and Strauss." Grove Music Online. A.
