DESCRIPTION:
Written in G-flat major, the song's tempo is "very calm and sweetly expressive," and the best elements of impressionism are revealed in the sweeping phrases, parallelism, and sixth and seventh chords. Performance notes and English translations are included.. This may well be the perfect introduction to the flavor and style of Debussy's work
"Completely Satisfied" according to David. I am completely satisfied with the product. The cover of mine had a beautiful painting on it like the Alfred Masterworks usually have, not the music notes that you see in the picture. The score was perfect, sounded exactly like the original. There are lots of helpful fingerings and footnotes, as well as English translations of Debussy's original dynamic words (au movemente, etc.). You would expect nothing less . A good student edition that is very affordable and understandable. The Alfred editions do a good job in keeping what the composer wrote clearly separated from their helpful editorial annotations. this popular work offers translations of the French instructions on how to play the piece, and offers good fingering and pedaling. Of course, the teacher (and student) should feel free to change these emendations as they see fit. But this basic two page work sounds beautiful, is not p. "Quintessential Debussy Style" according to S. Todt. This is, perhaps, Debussy's finest piece. The tones area beautiful, complex, and haunting. Only two pages long, the music was quickly mastered. It was a pleasure to play it.
