Claude-Achille Debussy (French: [klod aʃil dəbysi]; 22 August 1862 – 25 March 1918) was a French composer. Along with Maurice Ravel, he was one of the most prominent figures associated with Impressionist music, though he himself disliked the term when applied to his compositions. He was made Chevalier of the Legion of Honour in his native France in 1903. Debussy was among the most influential composers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and his use of non-traditional scales and chromaticism influenced many composers who followed.
Debussy's music is noted for its sensory content and frequent usage of nontraditional tonalities. The prominent French literary style of his period was known as Symbolism, and this movement directly inspired Debussy both as a composer and as an active cultural participant.
Songs of Travel is a song cycle of nine songs originally written for baritone voice composed by Ralph Vaughan Williams, with poems selected from the Robert Louis Stevenson collection of the same name. A complete performance of the entire cycle lasts between 20 and 24 minutes.
They were originally written for voice and piano. Vaughan Williams orchestrated the first, third, and eighth songs, and his assistant Roy Douglas later orchestrated the remaining songs using the same instrumentation. The orchestral version has often been recorded, but not always with Douglas acknowledged as its co-orchestrator.
Notable performers of this cycle include Bryn Terfel, Sir Thomas Allen, Sir John Tomlinson, Roderick Williams and John Shirley-Quirk.
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...

Steinway Artist Pascal Rogé, a master of French piano repertoire, performs Debussy‘s immortal “Clair de Lune” at New York City’s Steinway Hall. The celebrated movement from Debussy‘s “Suite Bergamasque” was originally titled “Promenade sentimental”; Debussy‘s suite was inspired by the poetry of Paul Verlaine.

Drenched in the light of the moon: Claude Debussy’s “Clair de lune” is an ode to the night sky. It’s one of the French composer’s best-known pieces and it was given an emotional interpretation on 17 October 2012 at a concert in the Salle Pleyel in Paris by piano virtuoso Menahem Pressler (1923 - 2023), who was almost 90 years old at the time. The French composer Claude Debussy (1862 – 1918) is a representative of musical Impressionism. Debussy was fond of subject matter from nature such as sea, clouds and snow and attempted to inject these phenomena of nature with musical character, whereby a formal freedom was of particular importance to him. Claude Debussy was an individualist who wasn’t afraid to ruffle feathers. He started getting noticed in 1894 with the orchestral work “Prélude à l´...
Multi-award-winning conductor Bernard Haitink leads the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in the Concertgebouw Amsterdam. They perform Claude Debussy's 'La mer, trois esquisses symphoniques pour orchestre,' known simply as 'La mer.' Claude Debussy (1862 - 1918) wrote this composition of 'three symphonic sketches' between 1903 and 1905. Upon its premiere in Paris in October 1905, it was not well-received, provoking confusion and dismay among both audience and critics. But after performances in the United States and Britain, it was performed again in Paris in 1908, and then quickly became one of Debussy's most famous and admired orchestral works. Along with Debussy's 'Nocturnes,' 'La mer' exemplifies musical Impressionism and serves as a transition between the Romantic and modern eras. Berna...

I'll light the fuse and I'll set that dam to blow flooding the entire town below
And all that I've known what wasn't nailed down will be washed away
My hands are shaking but I will not hesitate
I found the strength to face
The place I fear the most is the place I have to go to see the truth
It's ok to feel lost it just means you're alive
I've told myself a thousand times from the ashes we will rise
It's ok to feel lost walk through the flames and see
You're only left with that you need we're only here for the journey
Am I bold enough to be underlined like sand sifting through time
It all falls in line
Life is a mind field and on one side I'm stuck
I broke the key in the door I tried to unlock
I'm never giving up
The times that haunt you are the things you didn't do not what you did
It's ok to feel lost it just means you're alive
I've told myself a thousand times from the ashes we will rise
It's ok to feel lost walk through the flames and see
You're only left with what you need we're only here for the journey
We find the truth through tragedy
I'm finding new ways to make the same mistake
Putting my dreams on to paper and then folding them into planes
Then I left them go because when in Rome
I set fire to what I love the most
