The Best of Debussy

  • Claude Debussy (22 August 1862 - 25 March 1918) was a French composer. He is sometimes seen as the first Impressionist composer, although he vigorously rejected the term. He was among the most influential composers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
    Born to a family of modest means and little cultural involvement, Debussy showed enough musical talent to be admitted at the age of ten to France's leading music college, the Conservatoire de Paris. He originally studied the piano, but found his vocation in innovative composition, despite the disapproval of the Conservatoire's conservative professors. He took many years to develop his mature style, and was nearly 40 when he achieved international fame in 1902 with the only opera he completed, Pelléas et Mélisande.
    Debussy's orchestral works include Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune (1894), Nocturnes (1897-1899) and Images (1905-1912). His music was to a considerable extent a reaction against Wagner and the German musical tradition. He regarded the classical symphony as obsolete and sought an alternative in his "symphonic sketches", La mer (1903-1905). His piano works include two books of Préludes and two of Études. Throughout his career he wrote mélodies based on a wide variety of poetry, including his own. He was greatly influenced by the Symbolist poetic movement of the later 19th century. A small number of works, including the early La Damoiselle élue and the late Le Martyre de saint Sébastien have important parts for chorus. In his final years, he focused on chamber music, completing three of six planned sonatas for different combinations of instruments.
    With early influences including Russian and far-eastern music, Debussy developed his own style of harmony and orchestral colouring, derided - and unsuccessfully resisted - by much of the musical establishment of the day. His works have strongly influenced a wide range of composers including Béla Bartók, Olivier Messiaen, George Benjamin, and the jazz pianist and composer Bill Evans. Debussy died from cancer at his home in Paris at the age of 55 after a composing career of a little more than 30 years.

    The first time I heard music by Debussy I was 19 and a friend of mine was learning to play Clare de Lune... She could only play the first few bars but I had a very strong reaction to the music and went out of my way to discover more. I am 59 now and I have been playing the piano since I was about 30; I didn't have the opportunity until then, and I am mostly self-taught so my technique is unorthodox and my sight-reading is very poor. I wanted to play the piano even as a child but it wasn't possible. WHen I heard Clare de Lune I told myself I will play it one day. Last year I started to have lessons with a wonderful teacher and I told her my ambition is to play Clare de Lune, and she is helping me to get there. To be able to make this music myself is my dream. I can never tire of it.

    Debussy is unlike other composers. Instead of being dramatic and going all out with an entire orchestra, most of his songs are hauntingly ethereal and beautiful - and produced by a single, lone piano. pure magic.

      well he was a piano composer and you composers come from very different time periods and therefore influenced by many different things
      composers like Mozart, Bach or any big composers you may think of made music long before him and the expressive musical concepts that you hear in this hadn't been explored yet

I searched for the composer,but it was difficult because it was not the piano and I had no base of reference. Finally after about 3 years of searching , I found Claude. I am a better person for having heard his music. When I was diagnosed with terminal cancer,and given 6 months to live. I would play this album over and over again. Sometimes I would cry, then be filled with wondrous beauty and joy . All while listening to the same song. That was 10 years ago.

Plus, "talent" is irrelevant to the comment you were responding to; learning a piece of music is less about natural abilities than diligence. Therefore, when DaunyeSynigal said that he had learnt a piece of music, there was no relevance to talent.
      (If you decide that learning a piece of music does indeed require talent, then you have just refuted your own argument. Either way, your comment makes little sense.)

    Debussy's music doesn't make your soul suffer or long for something unachievable... unlike the music of Bach for example. I love Bach very much but in times of anxiety you just want to calm down. Debussy's melodies just flow through you without tearing you apart, they fill you with light and calmness.

    Music of the very soul.I listen to this poetic piece and drift off to another world. Sublime, beautiful, soothing. I read Debussy's autobiography once, he suffered for his music. He lived in poverty for many years until he attained success. Sadly he reached success just before he died. He died of ill health, due to a poor diet over many years. He was a musical genius.

      +JustAlberlos You may not, perhaps, be aware that Debussy came up during the 1870's, which makes him 19th Century-born. He didn't, however, receive recognition of any real consequence or reach his epitome of classical music notoriety until around 1905 [at the beginning of the 20th Century]. The point is, many of his pieces were composed 'before' the turn of the century.
      However, if we were back in Paris during the late 19th and early 20th Century's, I would double dare you to call Debussy an impressionist to his face! As for me, out of sheer respect for the man, I would choose not to call him such; or any other musical composer if one really understood what the term implies in a musical connotation. Hint: Milli Vanilli scandal. It's quite different, though, with painters [who impersonate on purpose].

Also, 19th century is the century of the romantics, not the classical composers (though debussy was born somewhere around 1870).

    The first time I listened to Debussy's song was in a piano app about a decade ago. The piece was "Album leaf" and since then I've never forgotten his unique style. When the quarantine started, I decided learning piano and I'm really happy about that, because I'm having the opportunity to play this beautiful song. Thank you for sharing such nice tracklist! Now I have more songs to learn.

      From what I've read, I don't think Debussy was actually a good person.. Left his first wife (Rosalie Texier) so depressed she actually attempted to commit suicide.
      And while she was in the hospital, he didn't even visit her once or pay for any of her medical bills because by that point, he was interested in another woman (Emma Bardac).
      He ended up hating her too.
      Heard he was really irresponsible with money as well.

      Debussy broadcasts "vibrations" of, indeed, "safety" by taking us through the barrier into The World of Natural Beauty, especially, the Real Beauty of the "The Not-yet Scientifically Explored Cosmos", and True Sensuousness, thus "rescuing" us from the abuse and dehumanization of "ugliness"---- the "outer face" of Negativity, Abolition of Progress,
