Waltz[edit]

Re: "While it is structurally based on the minuet, Ravel's use of accents and changes in tempo stop the movement from turning into a simple waltz.":

I don't think he needed to stop this movement from "turning into" a waltz: None of it is anything like a waltz. TheScotch (talk) 11:40, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Toccata[edit]

Re: "Ravel would later expand the proportions used in this piece to structure the Toccata section of Le Tombeau de Couperin.[citation needed]" I wonder in what sense a citation is needed for this statement? Surely one just looks at the two pieces in question and it can be deduced from there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nick Watts (talk • contribs) 09:00, 7 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Citations are preferred for all deductions made on Wikipedia. If it's so self evident, then it should be simple enough to find a published musical analysis of the works that details Ravel's process and how the two works are related. =) Sketchee (talk) 19:23, 23 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
