Considered as one of the masterworks of 20th century piano literature, this critical edition utilizes interpretive clues from such noted French pianists and pedagogues as Casadesus, Perlemuter, and Ciampi, who knew Ravel and studies this piece with him. The original Durand score has not been altered, but editorial changes are pointed out as they occur by means of footnotes. Through her expertise in the French piano literature Nancy Bricard has contributed her own ideas in regard to fingering and metronome markings.

5.0 out of 5 stars
An important edition,

This review is from: Ravel: Gaspard De LA Nuit (Alfred Masterwork Editions) (Paperback)
I am a collegiate piano student, and many established pianists have told me that this is the definative edition of Gaspard de la nuit. I purchased it, and was simply amazed by its quality. There are pages of background information on Ravel, and lots of helpful performance and musical suggestions. There are also a number of errors in previous editions that are pointed out concisely in the score. One of the most helpful additions to the music are the suggestive (and sometimes the only feasible) fingerings that are provided, which can ease the pain of learning this immensely challenging music.
