Alexandre Benois

Court: He wrote the famous piece

Who actually wrote the world-renowned classical piece "Boléro"? Was it solely the French composer Maurice Ravel or did he get help from the acclaimed Russian set designer Alexandre Benois? Now, a French court in Nanterre outside Paris has ruled that Maurice Ravel wrote the piece himself. "Boléro" was not a collaboration, which means that Benois' heirs will not receive any copyright revenue.
