"Rather lively (and) very rhythmical" is an English equivalent of the French phrase assez vif, très rythmé. The phrase famously refers to the second movement of the String Quartet in F Major by Joseph Maurice Ravel (March 7, 1875-Dec. 28, 1937). The pronunciation will be "a-sey veef treh reet-mey" in Alsatian and Cevenol French.
