- As his health declined in the 1930s, the great composer Maurice Ravel was less and less able to write the music which, reflecting his genius, his sense of orchestration, his fantasies, his tenderness and his humor, was the source of such masterpieces as The Piano Concerto in G major, The Concerto in D for the left hand, The Valse, L'Enfant et les sortilèges and the Toccata from The Tombeau de Couperin. In the end, it was illness that won the day. Ravel died of a brain tumor on December 28, 1967. He was 62 years old.
