Menuet sur le nom d'Haydn [Alf:00-41969S]

This delightful little miniature is an arrangement of Ravel's short minuet for piano written in homage to Classical era composer, Joseph Haydn. It was composed in 1909 and published a year later in 1910. Ravel based the raw material for this minuet on the notes whose letter names are the musical equivalents of Haydn's name.
