Maurice Ravel's 'Jeux d'Eau' (water games) is one of the most iconic impressionist pieces, with the characteristic pentatonic and whole tone scales, chords with many extensions and the aim to illustrate a natural phenomenon such as water. Yet, as Ravel stated himself, it follows a 'classical' sonata structure. Here is my analysis.
Recording is with Pascal Rogé

This is amazing! I think tetratones really give that ravel-like oriental melody..!

Normalize adding tiny hints of memes and emojis in music analysis. Brilliant work. And also, 4:15. that's all.

I would like to ask you why at 1:41 the chords are not C#7-9-13 and B7-9-13. Thanks in advance for the reply!

1.43 feels like a Debussy quote but can't put my finger on it

I don't understand the "thief" reference at 3:02. Are you implying that John Williams stole from Ravel, or did Ravel plagiarize someone else's music?

It's not meant in a serious way. The motif from John Williams' score is conspiciously similar, but it's just as basic of a motif that we can for sure assume that the similarity is mere coincidence.
