4/5. Excursions into the Past. Rococo and Baroque are just a couple of the descriptions that visitors applied to Ravel's house at Montfort I'Amaury. He delighted in showing them his impressive paintings and then watching their surprise as he would confess they were all fakes. This brand of pastiche and fascination with the past finds its way into his music. As
Donald Macleod discovers, Ravel used both classical forms and tales but applied his own imagination and invention to produce pieces that are unmistakably his own.
