Jeux d'eau,也被翻译成 “Fountains”, “Water Games”, 或 “Playing water”
是 Ravel 的第一首音乐印象派作品,灵感取自于 Liszt: Jeux d'eau a la Villa d'Este
以下是 Ravel 对这首曲子的解释:
Jeux d’eau, appearing in 1901, is at the origin of the pianistic novelities which one would notice in my work. This piece, inspired by the noise of water and by the musical sounds which make one hear the sprays water, the cascades, and the brooks, is based on two motives in the manner of the movement of a sonata—without, however, subjecting itself to the classical tonal plan.
