                                                              Le tombeau de Couperin is a suite for solo piano by Maurice Ravel, 
                                                    composed between 1914 and 1917.
                                                    It is in six movements. Each movement is dedicated to the memory of                                                                    friends of the composer who had died fighting in World War I. Ravel himself served in the war as an ambulance driver and was wounded in the process. Played here is:
