Wikipedia description:
Maurice Ravel's Violin and Piano Sonata No. 2 for violin and piano was composed from 1923 to 1927; it was inspired by forms of American music such as jazz and blues. This work was the only violin and piano sonata published during Ravel's lifetime; the existence of the Violin Sonata No. 1 (Ravel) only came to be known long after Ravel's death. For that reason this sonata was, and still often is called Ravel's "Violin and Piano Sonata" without numbering.
