It is Ravel's second opera, his first being "L'heure espagnole".

Robert Nagy (March 3, 1929 – November 7, 2008) was an American operatic tenor who had a lengthy and fruitful association with the Metropolitan Opera that lasted for three decades.  He mostly portrayed comprimario roles at the Met where his most memorable early role was the Messenger in "Aida"; a role he sang 172 times for the company.  He notably sang in the world premieres of two operas by Samuel Barber at the Met: "Vanessa" (1958) and "Antony and Cleopatra" (1966).  He also sang in the company premieres of "Die Frau ohne Schatten" (1966), "Billy Budd" (1978) and "L'enfant et les sortilèges" (1981).  Although Nagy specialized in supporting roles, he also portrayed several leading parts at the Met, among them Florestan in "Fidelio", Herodes in "Salome", and the Drum Major in "Wozzeck'.  He remained on the Met roster through the end of the 1987–88 season, performing 1,187 performances with the Met during his thirty years with the company. <SEP> In mathematical finance, a Monte Carlo option model uses Monte Carlo methods to calculate the value of an option with multiple sources of uncertainty or with complicated features.  The first application to option pricing was by Phelim Boyle in 1977 (for European options).  In 1996, M. Broadie and P. Glasserman showed how to price Asian options by Monte Carlo.  In 2001 F. A. Longstaff and E. S. Schwartz developed a practical Monte Carlo method for pricing American-style options. <SEP> Francesco Dominici (1885–1968) was an Italian operatic tenor particularly admired for his acting in comedic roles.  He made his professional opera debut as Fernando in Donizetti's "La favorite" at the Teatro Donizetti in Bergamo in 1914.  He created the role of Prunier in the original 1917 production of Puccini's "La rondine" at the Grand Théâtre de Monte Carlo, a role which he performed at many other opera houses including the Teatro Comunale di Bologna.  Over the next several years he played mostly leading roles at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome including Rodolfo in Puccini's "La Bohème", Fenton in Verdi's "Falstaff", and the Ernesto in Donizetti's "Don Pasquale".  In the early 1920s he joined the roster at La Scala where he began playing more buffo roles than leading roles.  In 1921, he sang the role of doctor Cajus in Verdi's Falstaff at La Scala and in 1922 was Filipeto in the company's first production of Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari's "I quattro rusteghi".  In 1926 he created the role of Emperor Altoum in the original production of Puccini's "Turandot" at La Scala.  In 1929 he went on tour with La Scala to Germany.  Other roles that Dominici performed at La Scala include David in Wagner's "Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg", Monostatos in Mozart's "The Magic Flute", and the Neipperg in Umberto Giordano's "Madame Sans-Gêne".  In 1931 he moved to Cuba, where he taught music for many years.  Dominici died in Havana in 1968.
