Composed by José De Jesús Ravelo. 19th Century,Classical,Historic,Romantic Period. Score. 52 pages. Editorial Copistas Acuario #1055685. Published by Editorial Copistas Acuario (A0.1478307).La presente publicación de la tanda de valses «Pita», del reconocido compositor dominicano José De Jesús Ravelo, se basa en la primera edición de la obra realizada en 1897 con el estampado musical diseñado en Leipzig por C. G. Röder.
Esta colección de valses está dedicada a la entonces enamorada del compositor, la Srta. Josefa de la Fuente, conocida como “Pepita”, con quien contraería matrimonio en 1902. Además, está documentada la intención del compositor de recaudar fondos con la edición de esta obra y destinarlos al proyecto del Parque Independencia en Santo Domingo. De ahí la inscripción «mi ofrenda al Parque ‘Independencia’» en la portada, la cual hemos decidido recrear como homenaje, incluyendo también una reinterpretación de la ilustración original alegórica a la independencia dominicana.
Por lo tanto, además de ser una de las primeras ediciones impresas conocidas de música dominicana, la tanda de valses «Pita» se circunscribe también a la historia del desarrollo y expansión de nuestra ciudad capital, ligada al proceso de construcción de uno de sus puntos de referencia más importantes.
Agradecemos la iniciativa de la Fundación Copistas Acuario por reeditar esta obra como resultado de su continua labor de rescate del patrimonio musical nacional.
Ahora sí, adentrémonos en esta historia de un joven Ravelo enamorado y emocionémonos junto a él con la música que inspiró su amor.

The present publication of the “Pita” waltz suite, by the renowned Dominican composer José De Jesús Ravelo, is based on the first edition of the work made in 1897 with the musical print designed in Leipzig by C. G. Röder.
This collection of waltzes is dedicated to the composer’s then fiancée, Miss Josefa de la Fuente, known as “Pepita”, whom he would marry in 1902. In addition, it is documented the composer’s intention to raise funds with the edition of this work and allocate them to the project of the Independencia Park in Santo Domingo. Hence the inscription “mi ofrenda al Parque ‘Independencia’” on the cover, which we have decided to recreate as a tribute, also including a reinterpretation of the original illustration allegorical to the Dominican independence.
Therefore, in addition to being one of the first known printed editions of Dominican music, the “Pita” waltz suite is also circumscribed to the history of the development and expansion of our capital city, linked to the process of construction of one of its most important landmarks.
We are grateful for the initiative of the Fundación Copistas Acuario for reissuing this work as a result of its continuous work to rescue the national musical heritage.
Now, let’s delve into this story of a young Ravelo in love and let’s be moved along with him by the music that inspired his love.
