I'm a 14 year old with really bad tinnitus, it gets so annoying and so stressful having a constant, high pitched ringing in my ears 24/7, I recently learned that listening to ambient sounds can help with it. This video is actually so helpful, I hear 0 ringing in my ears, I actually began tearing up. Thank you so much for making this!! 

😌
I can't say I know exactly how you feel but, I have a good idea. I have Meniere's Disease in my right ear. (Translation: constant ear ache with ringing.) Thunder storms and "white noise" have been my saving grace. That's why I say God bless, to the artists that make these videos. Good luck Sweetie. Many prayers. 😉
😌
Listening to the waves roll in at the beach works great, too.

Ravel’s Boléro 🎼 29 Stages of Listening

♪♪ Stages of Listening

to Ravel’s Boléro  ♪♪

April 2019  By Lizzie Davis

Maurice Ravel’s Boléro is one of the most famous pieces of classical music ever written. So you’d think Ravel would have been really proud – chuffed, even – that one of his works was recognized around the world, right? 

WRONG. He hated it. And tbh, we can sort of see why…

 

A Beginner's Guide to Boléro 

by Maurice Ravel
👇  📺  👇

These are the 29 Stages

of Listening to Ravel’s Boléro

1 Has it started yet?

2 Wow that snare drum player is exposed.
3 I wonder how he’s feeling right now.
4 What if he loses count?   Would they just start again?   

Such concentration.

5 Oh good someone else is playing now. That snare drum guy must be **relieved**

6 Ooh that clarinet line was a bit risqué for a concert hall.

7 Catchy tune this.

8 **hums along in head**

9 **taps toes**

10 **gets self-conscious about tapping toes** **stops**

11 Wow that snare drum guys is still going in the middle of all that.

12 I wonder if I could keep tapping that rhythm for this long

13 DUM DEEDEEDEE DUM DIDDLE DE DUM DEEDEED… oop, no that’s wrong

14 Try again. DUM DIDDLY DE DUM DIDDLY DE DUM DUM DUM DEEDLE DE DIDDLY DIDDLY DIDDLY DUM YES I CAN TOTALLY DO THIS.

15 **loses count**

16 Wow, I really have a new found respect for percussionists

17 SAXOPHONE KLAXON. More pieces with saxophones, composers of the world plz.

18 Is this getting louder or are there just more instruments playing?

19 Bit of both maybe?

20 Oh, nope. Definitely getting louder.

21 THIS IS SO MUCH FUN

22 This just carries on getting louder. The clarinettist looks like she might actually take off.

23 The conductor’s hair is properly wild now. We must be getting near the end.

24 OMG, we reached ff like 10 minutes ago. They must be at about fffff by now.

25 ARRRRRRRGH CRASH BANG SO MUCH LOUD SMASHY CHORD

26 Wow, that was AWESOME. I need a lie-down now.

27 Woooooop CLAP CLAP CLAP

28 Phew. There’s probably a really obvious metaphor here for something that builds up, gets faster and more energetic, and ends with an enormous climax but I just can’t think of it. Nope.

29 Let’s do it again!

Boléro

Boléro is a 1928 work for large orchestra by French composer Maurice Ravel. At least one observer has called it Ravel's most famous composition. It was also one of his last completed works before illness forced him into retirement. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bol%C3%A9ro

 

Le Boléro de Maurice Ravel est une musique de ballet pour orchestre en ut majeur composée en 1928 et créée le 22 novembre de la même année à l’Opéra Garnier par sa dédicataire, la danseuse russe Ida Rubinstein. Mouvement de danse au rythme et au tempo invariables, à la mélodie uniforme et répétitive, le Boléro de Ravel tire ses seuls éléments de variation des effets d’orchestration, d’un crescendo graduel et, in extremis, d’une courte modulation en mi majeur.

Cette œuvre singulière, que Ravel disait considérer comme une simple étude d’orchestration, a connu en quelques mois un succès planétaire qui en a fait son œuvre la plus célèbre et, de nos jours encore, une des pages de musique savante les plus jouées dans le monde. Mais l'immense popularité du Boléro tend à masquer l'ampleur de son originalité et les véritables desseins de son auteur.

L'œuvre porte la référence M.81, dans le catalogue des œuvres du compositeur établi par le musicologue Marcel Marnat.

Maurice Ravel

Joseph Maurice Ravel (7 March 1875 – 28 December 1937) was a French composer, pianist and conductor. He is often associated with Impressionism along with his elder contemporary Claude Debussy, although both composers rejected the term. In the 1920s and 1930s Ravel was internationally regarded as France's greatest living composer. 

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

 

Maurice Ravel (1875-1937)

Maurice Ravel est un compositeur français né à Ciboure le 7 mars 1875 et mort à Paris 16^e le 28 décembre 1937.

Avec son aîné Claude Debussy, Ravel fut la figure la plus influente de la musique française de son époque et le principal représentant du courant dit impressionniste au début du XX^e siècle. Son œuvre, modeste en quantité (quatre-vingt-six œuvres originales, vingt-cinq œuvres orchestrées ou transcrites), est le fruit d'influences variées s'étendant de Couperin et Rameau jusqu'aux couleurs et rythmes du jazz, dont celle, récurrente, de l'Espagne.
