Pavane pour une infante défunte by Maurice Ravel, arranged for Clarinet Choir by Matt Johnston. Originally composed for piano in 1899 while Maurice Ravel was studying at the Paris Conservatory under Gabriel Fauré, he later orchestrated the Pavane in 1910. He described it as "an evocation of a pavane that a little princess (Infanta) might, in former times, have danced at the Spanish court" and dedicated it to his patron, Winnaretta Singer, Princesse Edmond de Polignac.
