Claude Debussy - La Mer
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 มิ.ย. 2012
- "La Mer" L.109, (The Sea), is an orchestral composition by Claude Debussy. It was started in 1903 in France and completed in 1905 on the English Channel coast in Eastbourne. The premiere was given by the Lamoureux Orchestra under the direction of Camille Chevillard on 15 October 1905 in Paris. "La Mer" is a composition of huge suggestion and subtlety in its rich depiction of the ocean, which combines unusual orchestration with daring impressionistic harmonies. The work has proven very influential, and its use of sensuous tonal colours and its orchestration methods have influenced many later film scores. While the structure of the work places it outside of both absolute music and programme music as those terms were understood in the early 20th century, it obviously uses descriptive devices to suggest wind, waves and the ambience of the sea. But structuring a piece around a nature subject without any literary or human element to it - neither people, nor mythology, nor ships are suggested in the piece - also was highly unusual at the time.
Debussy called his work "three symphonic sketches," avoiding the loaded term symphony; yet the work is sometimes called a symphony; it consists of two powerful outer movements framing a lighter, faster piece which acts as a type of scherzo.
"La Mer" is divided inot three movements:
1. "De l'aube à midi sur la mer" (from dawn to midday on the sea);
2. "Jeux de vagues" (Play of the Waves);
3. "Dialogue du vent et de la mer" (Dialogue of the wind and the sea).

Thank you for the support
Thanks to you for sharing your marvelous music with the world. :]
thanks dad
Claude Debussy lovely sound
Dude it is dangerous to post comments like this. I almost choked in water...
HAHAHAHAHA!!!! X'D Mr. Claude you are amazing!
4:30 for you Twoset enthusiasts

U the best
I was looking for this! I love seeing twosetters in the comments section of random classical music videos
yes thank youuuu
Thx
This is by Claude Debus-sea.

Fun fact: This symphony was inspired by the famous painting "The Great Wave of Kanagawa" by Katsushika Hokusai
i really love the connections between art history and musical history
@@aj_814 really helps you visualize exactly what both artists were going for
Damn that painting is shit compared to this mastapiece!
It was actually on the cover of the score of the premeire of this piece!
@@_siggi_783 ok.
When you thought this piece could be listened to when studying
Now that is an understatement.
I would think it would be distracting if I was trying to concentrate elsewhere.
Lol, I just did that.
@@petertaylor3600 No, actually. I find lots of impressionists composition are fine for my concentration.
wait no. please. just started studying didn't need that haha
I'm a grade 10 student and we're studying about composers work, i never thought that i will be into classical compositions after knowing this masterpiece

Sameeee this is music is really perfect for studying unlike those lo fi music for me
nobody cares, my friend
@@reidie3498 and nobody asked abt ur opinion, lady.
@@carinaconsing7305 where is the question
I’m not really into classical music but this really makes you “feel” the sea. This guy is genius
this song really makes you FEEL like the sea!
And you guys won't believe this . . Some leading critic blasted La Mer, saying something like I do not hear, feel, or smell the sea. Something like that. If I can get it again, I'll post a link. You know, that often happens to new kinds of art. Beethoven too, even. Wagner.
@@henrybrowne7248 yeah thats what i was thinking when i read this comment haha well the first who heard it didnt agree
@@let_there_be_dark dunkey?!??!1
Check out, if you have the time, Ravel's "Un Barque Sur L'eocean", a small boat on the sea. Written for a solo piani
o
(though adapted for orchestra later), listen to this first. The waves, a small storm comes up, subsides. The waves and the depth are all there. Water is so close to music, when done right
4:30 I don't know how composing something this beautiful is human. Absolutely breathtaking.
It's not human, it's Debussy!
I know! I want to study this stuff and learn his techniques . .
I love that section so much I wish there was some composer who built on that motif and extended it to something of it's own. Genre could be something like what Nujabes does or some of the other neo soul artists that incorporate orchestral elements in their music

I love Debussy. Sometimes all i can think about is Debussy.
+Balázs Tóth Don't forget the pianist. The pianist is so good with Debussy
But when you're listening to classical music, be sure the last thing you hear is Bach. Always finish in the Bach, never finish in Debussy.
maybe unorthodox but why bach?
it's a dirty joke, it symbolises always finish from the "back" not the pussy
jesus christ, this is rly not my kind of humor. But at least someone gets a rly good joke out of it
Twoset Violin brought me here from their Pokemon charades video lol. Forgot how amazing this piece was.

came here for twoset comments. i'm not dissapointed :D
Thet brought me from their charades of animals 😁

8:09 Debussy has this THING about creating a really great possible motif ONCE and then never having it show up again. It happens in Reverie too and it's so weirdly specifically frustrating
And yet, those are the most memorable moments. He only needed to say it once. Epitome of good taste. :)
So many (classical) composers make fantastic themes and then don't repeat them enough
Debussy hated repeating Motifs too much. He is quoted with saying how he dislikes Beethoven because of his constant repetition before resolution, which sounds something an Impressionist would say ngl
Not much theme and variation...just a lot of variation.
paul w lol are you a commie
While other composers were writing notes on a page, Debussy was painting with tonal delights.
Expected to just listen to 5 minutes to get the "gist". Ended up listening to all of it at the edge of my seat. Deeply moved. Best composer in the world.
lol same.
I never heard of impressionist music before this, mostly into opera, classical, etc but i figured I may as well give it a try and see what impressionist music is all a bout,, umm,,, yeah pretty good.
One part of this sounded like a semi trailer rubbling in the distance and i was like damn, something big must be coming,, ohh,,, it's the song.
until another achieves the same effect???
Having said that to urge you to keep looking further it's only fair to add
this is one of the3 I play most often
when I put it on while doing things I often end up listening 2or3 times in a row

I like how 3 different companies are making ad revenue off of this work that was composed over 100 years ago
Debussy was 'in love' with the sea, you can really hear it in this one...
Well actually he was in love with the wives of many men.

@@lailiecarrillo -- You said it.
@@lailiecarrillo Actually, it's PKCKSNQHCKCLXBDP
I can listen forever to this music , I love it, especially the fragment in 22:17, it is like the wind and the sea, finally , after a long time arguing with each other , are rendered in a passionate kiss. The solemn notes of the wind instruments and the strings are simply indescribable
Amazing figurative language!!!!
I love this part the most
I really like Debussy. His compositions are unconventional compared to other composers. His melodies and harmonies clashed but yet beautifully fit together. I also like, upon listening for the first time, the fact that you can never predict where the melody of many of his works will go.
He is just phenomenal. I used to be a Beethoven guy, but I later realized just how much the impressionists opened doors for all of Western music . . And Debussy was the best. I hear his influence in a lot of music today, including great jazz musicians.
@@henrybrowne7248 It's good to appreciate Beethoven's genius too -- not many people do nowadays
@@bdstudios6088 You can't be including Europe. . .
It's more about t he music trend and knowledge of the time, he was an impresionist, trying to create an experience or image from his music, like Satie. To me it's a bit weird that impressionism has subsided as much as it has, it's a music style capable of creating really beautiful stuff.
Yet, you can hear how much influence he, and Ravel, had, and has, over popular film music, a huge part of our common soundtrack of the lives we have lived. I hear Ravel in every pirate movie, I hear Holst in every Star Wars saga
oh my god. at 7:45 it feels like a new brighter era arises for the humanity. it's so emotional i want to cry
For me the whole 1st part feels like you're sailing at night with a calm sea and at the end (the timestamp you mentioned) the sun is rising in all its glory. ☺
Are you high

Not all heroes wear capes
Merci pour les précisions !
I've known this piece almost all my life (I'm 72) and I've heard all the great performances -- Toscanini, Monteux, Munch, Boulez, etc. I was just bowled over by this one. It is just perfectly paced and so transparent (it helps that he had an orchestra of the caliber of the Cleveland at his disposal). I love the way he does the crash of the wave at 18:00. The more I hear of Ashkenazy the conductor, the more of a believer I've become (I was already a believer in Ashkenazy the pianist).
***** Yes it is so vibrant! The beginning is wonderful, you can hear the wind..it's so evocative. Debussy was a master of creating nature as music!

And guess what. You'll not find this at iTunes. No sir. Their three renditions are junk compared to this.
Well said. Spot on!

the only debussy composition i knew until now was claire de lune. this sounds like original soundtrack of a modern movie.
You should check out the whole Suite Bergamasque as well.
You should check out every Debussy piece. And then top it off with Ravel. Music will rarely ever sound as good again.
Debussy, Ravel and Darude - Sandstorm. That's all the music there is.
I think that European art and craftsmanship altogether reached its peak at that time...
Bill Miller :at that time music reached its insurpassable summit. No wonder after that the only one direction possible was:DOWN!!!
My eyes have never really seen the sea until the first time I heard this piece. I always feel some kind of poetic sublimation listening to Debussy. Transcendence.
Impressionism, my friend....
***** are you dumb?
I hadn't really seen the sea until I heard Rod Stewart sing 'we are sailing'.
You have been assimilated.
I feel the same way again after many years.
When I was 18 years old, I used to listen to a lot of classical music. I loved this piece. I would often listen to it as I did other classical pieces like Stravinsky's "Firebird Suite" or Karl Richter playing Liszt's Fantasia & Fugue In G Minor. I have to agree this piece = Transcendence and Unity. Listening to it just now brought back that bliss and unity that I experienced then.
I love this composition. I have visited Debussy's grave in Passy cemetery in Paris.
How wonderful it must have been..
I've visited the house where he was born in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, near Paris.
I tried to listen to this while doing work but then I got so enthralled by it that I ended up just paying more attention to the piece itself than my work, I have no regrets at all it was a great experience 10/10 debussy is thriving from his grave
literally so relatable, i like to listen to classical music when I do schoolwork but always get carried away by the music
Hey, you guys are like me. I never listen to music when I'm trying to concentrate on something else. It's either the something else, or it's the music, if it's the stuff that I like . . Pieces like this just suck me in, I'm lost to the world . .
me right now. i was just trying to multitask my activities while listening to this piece to write some review but now I'm completely focused in listening to this masterpiece.
Debussy stated that he WANTED this whole work of ART to be listened to by the individual, not in a symphony hall. *listen alone, w/headphones*
Well after listening alone with headphones I really wanna see that in a concert too, I imagine that hearing it IRL with all the instruments in the room must be even more intense!
14:30 one of the most sublime endings of a melodic idea
4:30 thank you Debussy for capturing the feeling of seeing the sea for the very first time and translating it into music
10:17-10:24 has got to be one of my favourite musical phrases, pure magic
totally agree
After hearing this I realized I felt in love with Debussy
mmmm I love debussy 🤤
Hearing the waves....swimming in the music!
What I love about this song is that Debussy actually suffered from horrible sea sickness yet he managed to make the ocean sound beautiful despite it bringing pain to his body. Art.

This is NOT a song.
thank you. that was definitely my fun fact of the day (unless a better etc)
Its hard to believe that this was composed in 1905, it sounds so modern.
that is pretty modern
Classical pieces during that era was turning point form late romanticism to modernism. So not special at all. Every classical pieces during that time sound like modern film music
@@user-jq7bl2er4n alright
"Le Sacre du Printemps" a été composé à la même époque (1905 pour Debussy, 1910 pour Stravinsky), et cette composition sonne largement plus moderne que "La Mer" !
(ce qui n'empêche pas que "La Mer" est aussi un chef-d'œuvre, bien évidemment )
When this music was written people weren't expected to hold two jobs to afford to buy everything in sight from Walmart. Stopping to smell the roses wasn't a cliché.' No TV or radio or cell phones. People had time to think, to enjoy life's natural pleasures. Of course it wasn't all beaucolic. Disease struck down children and adults. War killed 10's of thousands. Thankfully, this music was written so we may enjoy it if we allow ourselves the time - our greatest gift to ourselves.
@Yilin TO true
@Yilin TO I agree
wOaH mAN tHAt'S sOoOoOO dEeP!
Just evidence that we need to destroy capitalism any way we can. People don’t hold multiple jobs out of greed, or to “buy everything in sight from walmart”. They do it because the boot of the world is on their neck, and if they don’t they will starve and their children will die. Debussy fits a less cruel, less racist world
This comment is so weird and fake deep considering this was after the Industrial Revolution and people were just barely getting laws passed against child labor and intense labor work weeks that were leading to fatigue and death... the wealthy had time to think and enjoy life, yeah, but so do the wealthy now.
I think Debussy must be my favourite composer - his compositions always transport me somewhere else. So devine
I agree, but what about Ravel ?
@@alexs1504 You took the words right out of my mouth.
"Graceful and energizing!"
@@alexs1504 Ondine is a masterpiece
@@migardax2304 Yes, everything Ravel wrote is a masterpiece anyway, and Ondine has a very special spot for me
How can 25 people dislike this? Music like this is soul enhancing, a triumph of human creativity.
Daniel Montes de Oca People are allowed opinions, my friend.
26 unfortunately...
Daniel Montes de Oca but if you see the 1828 people who liked it , then those couple that didn't are just a small percentage
Daniel Montes de Oca It might be fascinating to know that when it premiered in Paris in 1905, it was wrought with truly harsh criticism from some of France's most distinguished critics. Many claimed the piece no longer sounded true to Debussy's free form, and that he had grown to become stiff and systematic of his own freeness. One critic even said, "I have the impression that M. Debussy found composition to be a duty instead of a pleasure". What I say is good thing the opinion has changed! It is an impeccably beautiful piece, and the few that dislike it now is much less than those in 1905, that's for sure!
Daniel Montes de Oca They probably pressed the wrong button...
08:25 - one of the most sublime moments of music. Absolutely out of the mankind world - and, instead of take me to the sea, I'd rather be transported to time passing, the end of the day, the sundown, changing light color from yellow to orange and red and pink tones. Almost sacred moment.
22:17 make me feel all the majesty of the sea

THAKSSSSSSS!!!!
How did you know this info?
Thank you so much!
Thanks was looking for this :)
What a great composer he was! It took me years to really appreciate him.
16:16- 16:30 sounds like a suspenseful scene in an old disney film. picture a kid and his dog trying to run to a barn while a storm is raging. the wind is howling louder than the wolves they made enemies with in the woods. they're cornered at a cliff, helpless, even with the boy's brilliant weapon of choice...a stick.
Came here only based on the fact it premiered on my birthdate (month and day) October 15th. Course I was born years later..1982, but so glad I looked this up. Beautiful.
I sense an asian theme at the start, it's like sailing between Chinese and Japanese sea.
The first movement was inspire from the Great Wave of Kanagawa of Hokusai that's why it sounds asian

I just heard the Cleveland Orchestra perform this and it was absolutely incredible! It's a shame Debussy isn't mentioned in the same breath as composers like Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, and Tchaikovsky.
Because he's better…

Uh ok
Oh, you're here! I really thought I was the only one who needed this for a music assignment? Nice to meet you then.
same here
This is a great composition, and a great rendition of the composition. I am 54 now and heard this first when I was maybe 5. At that time is was colorful and mood evoking. As I have grown and learned music composition, I have come to love this on a deeper level. The intricate complexities and theme interplay are always engrossing even after many times hearing it.
It is easily in my top 3 all time favorites, and not just of classical, but all music.
I read some comments of movie theme music, and I have always thought this was like the granddad to them all. In a way, it started the genre. It is hard to judge the impact on modern composition La Mer has had, but I suspect it is huge, even for composers who may not have heard it, because chances are they have heard the influence of a composer who has. This is a gateway to imagination and emotion.
I love the piece and have always wanted it to be a little longer...he goes thru so many themes, and some are just touched on, evoking the possibility of expounding on those...but he just gives us teasers in a complex buffet. To the contrary though, is the idea that because he does not linger or repeat too much, that may create the excitement to hear it over and over.
I think I have expressed some ideas I have had about La Mer, and after reading so many remarks, I wanted to share.
Thanks
This is a trip when you are alone atnite on the beach.
You never forget.
"La musique est l'arithmétique des sons, tandis que l'optique est la géométrie de la lumière."
"Music is the arithmetic of sounds as optics is the geometry of light."
Claude Debussy.
La Mer is one of the wonders of the world.
The part starting at 12:41 and then at 13:13 beggining to build towards climax is one of the most sublime things imaginable.
Such an astoundingly breathtaking picture he portrays-- brings tears to your eyes. This is music that eclipses time
I'm came because of TwoSet Violin. I sayed for the beautiful music.
This is one of the work that really made me question how can someone write something this beautiful
This music... This beautiful fairy tale music.... It sounds so familiar. I feel like watching some old movie. It's like I'm little boy again. I've never felt this way before.
This piece is an amazing journey and captures the sea perfectly, in my opinion...
There are a few cues in the piece for which I imagined some scenes ;)
1:20 sounds like you take to the sea in your first ship, venturing into the unknown
2:44 a few clouds appear on the horizon, the sea gets a little rougher
3:04 the wind gets stronger as the storm closes in
3:36 the ship rocks around on the now very rough waves, things tumble around on the deck in a wild ballet of wind and water
4:01 the waves crash down a last time before getting weaker again
4:34 a single beam of sunlight bursts through the clouds. The sky lightens and the sea lies before your eyes, calm again.
7:44 a small dark smear appears on the horizon, steadily growing bigger. You take a closer look and realise it's...
8:06 ... land!
If anyone reads this and has another moment in the track that reminds them of some imagery, reply to this and I'll add it!
Magistral. Claude, tu est un magicien.

MAGIC AND MY FAVORITE COMPOSITION FROM CLAUDE
Écouter ceci après avoir entendu que Georges Pernoud, présentateur de _Thalassa_ , nous a quitté. Quelle tristesse, cet homme et son émission étaient une grosse partie de mon enfance. Reposez en paix, et bon vent.
I have this in Vinyl from long ago.I used to listen to it to relax after work,i fell asleep every time before the end.that is how to relax
Can you still buy vinyl presses for this?
Colourful harmony and colourful orchestral.
Calme et tranquille pour finir cette année maudite 2023
Attraction and anxiety at the same time.
Yes... waves of thrills, alive with energy in contrast to the dead earth with its useless wind.
It's what in Romanticism is called "sublime".
My first time hearing this, I have to say this piece has so much unique phrasing, sounds like a sea, and the unpredictability of where the composer is going is a thrill. Definitely not background music.
I find it amazing that some people are so rude about certain pieces of music. Just because they don't like it, doesn't make it nonsense or rubbish. It's just they don't understand it. Debussy, for example has his own style of sound world. Slightly mystical and ethereal and even creepy at times. But how can ppl say this is rubbish??!!
There is never any reason to be rude about anything is there? "If you cannit say something nice do not say anything" is what the old motto advised
ENGLAND
I've never heard anyone say Debussy is rubbish?
But yea if I don't like a song or movie I don't say it's shit. It's just not my taste. Too many people say something is rubbish just because they don't like it.
Although there is some music which really does seem like rubbish (like Kim Kardashian's song for example 😆) but if someone gets enjoyment out of it who am I to judge?
Classical music can be hard to get into. Most people only hear it as the soundtrack in movies. And most people listen to music with a singer, not instrumentals.
I started appreciating it after I went to the Dracula ballet last year with an orchestra. I had the music stuck in my head for days.
Every time I hear it, there’s something new
And this, is why Debussy is my favorite composer.
Listen Gaspard de la nuit by Ravel and there may be a chage of mind

@@vijaykrishnan7797 no
Note: John Williams drew inspiration of this piece( especially the third movement ) to create the Jaws theme song.
Totally sounds like it at 15:15
No kidding. He basically ripped it off.
Also, if you listen to "Bruyeres" you can hear that he extracted some influence for the Star Wars Theme.
Most composers probably do that: inspired by what came before, and shape it to their unique style
He also took it from Dvořak 9. symphony 4mvt
WHY DO I GET A DUREX ADVERT IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS MASTERPIECE ?! LET ME ALONE !!!
I remember hearing a podcast about this piece a few years ago. This was considered to be way too weird and experimental at the time; it rubbed a lot of people the wrong way.
Gonna send this to my friends who have never been to the beach.

Debussy is the greatest composer in the World. His Claire De Lune
is the most romantic piece ever created by man.
I could not write about a sea, until I heard this music.
literally an entire story within the music, really enjoyanble
I adore this work. First CD I bought was a CD of La Mer. I used to take my dad's record, put it on cranking the volume up max and lie in the carpet listening to this with my eyes closed imagining the sea with light playing on the waves. I could never get enough of it.
I just love this piece. There is not any music composed by Debussy that I don't like. At that matter I love listening to all these accomplished composers' music. I just love classical music.
Je ne me lasserai jamais d'écouter ce morceau ,jusqu’à la fin de ma vie!!!!!!
Very nice.
I wish I had the opportunity to show my dad that my taste in music most certainly expanded thanks to him.
To sit back and enjoy this with him would have been an unreal experience
I can only imagine now a days

He knows... and is smiling and waiting until he can, once again and for all eternity, sit with you and enjoy the most beautiful and amazing music! 💕
This is so beautiful! It really sounds like the ocean.
Eigentlich ist es doch unfassbar wie man damals solch eine unfassbar fantastische Musik komponieren konnte.
The gods of music favor this night... clarity into the mind of Debussy as I had never experienced it before... slower movement perceived and enhanced... I feel I am underwater. And I’m sober... the techniques of Debussy unveil and open before me... master of orchestration !! Debussy !! Such brilliance ! Such color! Like no one else before you !!
