The beautiful, well-kept, and neat facade of this building might prompt a passing pedestrian to snap a spontaneous photo. Others head to this address specifically to visit the house. However, it's not an interest in architecture that draws them here, but rather in music. The famous composer Maurice (actually Joseph-Maurice) Ravel (born 1875, died 1937) lived here. The work that most people spontaneously associate with his name is certainly "Bolero." He wrote the piece in 1928 for the Russian dancer Ida Rubenstein (1885 to 1960). Ravel himself is said to have said: "I have only created one masterpiece, and that is the Bolero; unfortunately, it contains no music."
