Poulenc Improvisation n. 7 in C major

The first piece from Ravels' collection Miroirs. I've always wondered what these pieces are mirroring. Noctuelles, is a certain type of moth. This piece is highly chromatic, but underneath the flighty surface lies a tonal framework. Ravel uses a pseudo-sonata form for the piece, underlying a typical 'classical' feature of the work. 

Recorded live, Spring 2018
