Maurice Ravel (1875-1937): Piano Concerto in G (1931) - II. Adagio assai

Martha Argerich, Berliner Philharmoniker, Claudio Abbado (1967, Berlin)

The G-major Concerto took two years of work, you know. The opening theme came to me on a train between Oxford and London. But the initial idea is nothing. The work of chiseling then began. We’ve gone past the days when the composer was thought of as being struck by inspiration, feverishly scribbling down his thoughts on a scrap of paper. Writing music is seventy-five percent an intellectual activity. (Maurice Ravel)
