Interesting Facts
- (Achille) Claude Debussy (1862–1918) is often credited as the first Impressionist composer, though he personally rejected the label. His music changed the course of modern composition by replacing rigid Germanic structures with color, nuance, and harmonic freedom.
- Born in modest circumstances, Debussy entered the Conservatoire de Paris at age ten, showing early genius in piano and composition.
- His works, including Prélude à l'après-midi d’un faune, Nocturnes, and La mer, broke with classical conventions and inspired generations of composers from Béla Bartók to Bill Evans.
- Debussy’s fascination with Symbolist poetry and non-Western music enriched his harmonic language, creating music that feels both timeless and otherworldly.
- Pianist Wolf van Eyck interprets Debussy’s pieces with sensitivity and clarity, revealing the composer’s mastery of musical color and emotional shading.
