"While on vacation at St Jean-de-Luz, Ravel went to the piano and played a melody with one finger to his friend Gustave Samazeuilh, saying "Don't you think this theme has an insistent quality? I'm going to try and repeat it a number of times without any development, gradually increasing the orchestra as best I can."^[3] This piece was initially called Fandango, but its title was soon changed to Bolero."

let me think about the above.....FANDANGO...'very very frightening, thunder bolt and lightning' sang QUEEN in Bohemian Rhapsody....

sounds a bit like ZEUS king of the gods, doesn't it?

BOLERO comes across as 'the drums of war' in that video below...the red soldier boy outfits.....and the Spanish influence is evident...

anyway, i have always linked RAVEL to Italy and the Italians...although when one is to read his biography on wiki:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurice_Ravel

we have a SWISS father for example...and the photo of RAVEL...well, he looks 'Italian' to me...in the way that GILL looked 'Italian' to the Italians....

 

let me think...this is all about Italian intelligence asking ANDREOTTI to unravel that whole 'ball of wool'....the taschmann program...and then them relaying it on to me....Andreotti 'knew the lot' didn't he? he had worked it out....after the masterchip had been taken out, that is....

 

 

Ravel looks a bit like 'Feschotte' - from my early childhood....but they couldn't possibly be related, could they?

 

 

i can remember NINI mentioning RAVEL but i cannot remember 'in what context'...let me scan....oh i remember...it is all about that 'circus machine' isn't it? French intelligence were of the opinion that this had been the first instance of the MI6 'CAROUSEL'....
