Maurice Ravel, a French composer of Swiss-Basque descent, is celebrated for his meticulous craftsmanship and brilliant orchestration. Though associated with Impressionism, his style incorporated modernism, neoclassicism, and jazz. His iconic works include Boléro, Daphnis et Chloé, and Pavane pour une infante défunte. He notably orchestrated Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition and collaborated with figures like Diaghilev and Rubinstein. Ravel declined the Légion d'Honneur, solidifying his independent spirit.
