Maurice Ravel's Piano Concerto in G major was composed between 1929 and 1931. The concerto is in three movements and is heavily influenced by jazz, which Ravel had encountered on a concert tour of the United States in 1928. The concerto was deeply infused with jazz idioms and harmonies, which, at the time, were highly popular in Paris as well as the United States, where Ravel was traveling on a piano tour.

Maurice Ravel's Piano Concerto in G major was composed between 1929–1931. The work comprises three movements: Allegramente, Adagio assai, and Presto. After his well-received piano tour of America, Ravel wanted to debut this new work himself. However, health issues precluded this possibility with his preparatory practice of Franz Liszt's and Frédéric Chopin's etudes leading to fatigue. Instead, Marguerite Long - who was known for her performances of the works of Gabriel Fauré and Claude Debussy and had earlier asked Ravel for a new work, later debuted the concerto. Joseph-Maurice Ravel (7th March 1875–28th December 1937) was a French composer and pianist. His piano music, chamber music, and orchestral works have become staples in the repertoire.
