Notes

The Violin and Piano Sonata No. 1 by Maurice Ravel, known also as Sonate posthume, is the composer’s earliest instance of a sonata for this combination of instruments. Though it was composed 30 years before the publication of his second violin sonata, it was not published until 38 years after his death.
