Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Debussy a Study in Modern Music It is convenient, even if it is an incom plete definition of his altogether novel attitude towards music, to describe Debussy as an impressionist. He is something more than an impressionist as the term is commonly understood, although in his work there is not a little which recalls the methods and the points of view of the masters of impressionist painting. Debussy, however, differs from, quite as much, if not more, than he resembles the impressionist painters, as regards his attitude towards the general body of his art.

Download or read book Debussy written by Stephen Walsh and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most revered composers of the twentieth century, Claude Debussy (1862–1918) achieved the unheard of: he reinvented the language of music without alienating the majority of music lovers. Debussy drove French music into entirely new regions of beauty and excitement at a time when old traditions threatened to stifle it. Yet despite his profound influence on French culture, Debussy’s own life was complicated and often troubled by struggles over money, women, and ill health. Here, Stephen Walsh, acclaimed author of Stravinsky, chronicles both the composer himself and the unique moment in European history that bore him. Walsh’s engagingly original approach is to enrich a lively biography with analyses of Debussy’s music: from his first daring breaks with the rules as a Conservatoire student to his achievements as the greatest French composer of his time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Piano Music of Claude Debussy Two pieces however are directly inspired by the idea of the war one dated December, 1914, written originally for piano and orchestrated later, called Berceuse heroique, whose dedication is}: pour rendre hommage a S. M. Le Roi Albert let de Belge et a scs soldats and the other for song and piano, Noel des enfants qui n'ont plus de Maison, dated 1915.
