Gaspard de la nuit : Trois poèmes pour piano d'après Aloysius Bertrand — это полное название этого произведения Равеля. На самом деле, пьесы этого цикла вдохновлены сборником стихов, опубликованным в 1842 году Алоизием Бертраном, который поразил композитора своей мрачной и готической атмосферой, напоминающей роман Эдгара Аллана По. Как будто в гримуаре, Gaspard de la nuit рассказывает историю о трех сверхъестественных существах, взятых из этих стихов: водяной нимфе Ондине, двусмысленном и тревожном палаче из Gibet, и заканчивая Скарбо, маленьким и дьявольским гоблином. Прекрасная музыка Gaspard de la nuit была создана, чтобы выразить тревогу Равеля по поводу смерти его отца. И все же, демонический голос проникает в его музыку… Это «дьявольское желание соблазнять и восхищать» (Сандрине Ларрабюру Бедуре, 2014).

“After three long months of gestation, [...] it was the devil himself who wrote Gaspard,” Ravel writes in his notes. And listening to his suite Gaspard de la nuit, one truly has the impression of listening to something devilish. In fact, the technical mastery that this piece requires of the player is immense and Faustian in character. Apparently, Ravel once declared with a mischievous smile that he wanted to write a work more difficult than Balakirev’s Islamey—a renewed pinnacle of virtuosity. The structure of Ravel’s work is diabolic, etymologically speaking: Ravel based his composition on oppositions (the opposition pianissimo/fortissimo, for example), in order to put the idea of the devil into music, which means « to disunite » in Greek.
