Description

Un viaggio nel profondo della vita e delle opere di Claude Debussy (1862-1918), la cui musica rappresentò il legame tra Romanticismo ed et à moderna. Una studio sulle strette relazioni tra le innovative composizioni di Debussy e i cambiamenti intervenuti nella letteratura e nell'arte negli stessi anni. Un'analisi critica di molte delle sue composizioni, a partire dall'incantevole opera "Pelléas et Mélisande" e dall'evocativa suite per orchestra "La Mer". Il racconto di come le opere spesso controverse di Debussy furono create, eseguite e percepite, e della loro persistente influenza fino al XXI secolo. Il volume è arricchito dalle illustrazioni di Jean-Jacques Sempé.
