Mirrors: Reflections on Maurice Ravel with Paul Crossley (BBC Documentary from 1987 Remastered)
This is a 1987 BBC documentary narrated by Paul Crossley, giving some deep and unique perspectives on the life and music of Maurice Ravel. The original version of this had substandard audio, so this remastered version improves both its video and audio. At 27:37, Crossley makes the significant claim that Ravel was "recently" discovered to be the true author behind the 1904 song Fascination. I have been unable to find any corroborating evidence of this claim.
