Ravel composed his Pièce en forme de Habanera in 1907, originally as a vocalise for voice and piano although it has since been transcribed for many instrumental combinations. Its brief duration and exotic flavour mean it is popular within a short recital or as an encore piece.

There are 3 transcriptions provided here in different keys. This most often played is in G (which starts with 2 flats in the key signature and ends with 1 sharp), and arrangements for violin, cello and flute exist in this key. There are also piano tracks in D (suitable for flute) and C (clarinet and oboe), so hopefully at least one version should suit your preferred instrument.

These high-quality piano accompaniment tracks help make practising more effective and enjoyable! They are recorded by a professional accompanist and can help you keep in tune and in time, as you play along to the piano part for this work.
