Claude Debussy (22 août 1862 – 25 mars 1918)

Description:

Debussy was a French composer who was greatly influential during the turn of the century. His unique style of harmony and orchestration, influenced by Russian and Eastern Music, was resisted by his contemporaries, but ultimately accepted by the musical establishment of his time. He is seen as the first impressionist, a movement characterized by a focus on mood and atmosphere, though he dismissed the label.

Popular works include:
Clair de Lune
His Preludes and Etudes
Reverie
La Mer
