Le Tombeau de Couperin Le Tombeau de Couperin is a suite originally composed for solo piano by Maurice Ravel between the years 1914 and 1917. The movements are based on those of a traditional Baroque dance suite. Each movement is dedicated as a memorial (Tombeau) to a friend or relative who had died fighting in World War I. (Wikipedia) Ralph Sauers virtuosic arrangement for Trombone and Piano of about 20 minutes of glorious music is of four of the movements: I. Prélude, II. Forlane, III. Menuet and IV. Rigaudon.
