Claude Debussy 
Claude Debussy Piano Music 1888-1905 

This volume contains the complete music for solo piano written by Claude Debussy between 1888 and 1905. Beginning with
Deux Arabesques (1888), it offers the
Suite bergamasque (1890–1905),
Réverie (1890),
Danse (1890),
Ballade (1890),
Pour le piano (1896–1901),
D’un cahier d’esquisses (1903),
Extampes (1903),
Mazurka (1891),
Valse romantique (1890),
Masques (1904),
L’Isle joyeuse (1904), and the first series of
Images (1905):
Reflets dans l’eau, Hommage a Rameau, and
Mouvement. In each case the music has been reproduced photographically from original or early editions.

This book has been designed to be used at the piano. Noteheads are large and clearly printed: margins and spaces are adequate for written notes, fingerings, and turnovers. It is also most useful, of course, for analysis or simply for listening along with the music.

Über den Autor

French composer Claude Debussy (1862–1918) was one of the most prominent figures working within the field of impressionist music, although he disliked the term when applied to his compositions. A central figure in European music of the turn of the 20th century, he was made Chevalier of the Legion of Honor in 1903.
