In honour of Maurice Ravel’s 150th birthday, Allison Ernst plays “Sonatine,” a three-movement piano work that blends classical structure with impressionistic harmony and colour. The title itself refers to the piece’s small stature; however, this 12-minute technically demanding work features delicate textures, lyrical melodies, and subtle dynamic contrasts, showcasing Ravel’s elegance and refinement in composition.
