    You are so right.

    Something "begun" by Dvořák.
    Something, complete, by Rossini....

      ...with an added accent Ravel thought might produce the sound he really intended?

              o, good man: yes - Moor as in the Moor of Venice, Dvořák's overture Othello and Rossini's opera Otello...

              Now, for Ravel, that accent, that instrument....

                        yes indeedy!

                        Emánuel Moór - Wikipedia
                        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emánuel_Moór


                        as wiki says - "Maurice Ravel said that the Emánuel Moór Pianoforte produced the sounds he had really intended in some of his works, if only it had been possible to write them for two hands playing on a standard piano"

                        Congrats to the Ferneyhiccup - who will now be happy to N-courage us further...

                            No: the accent over the "o" goes the other way, but I can't find the ALT code for it!
