This volume contains the complete music for solo piano written by Claude Debussy between 1888 and 1905. Beginning with "Deux Arabesques" (1888), it offers the "Suite bergamasque "(1890-1905), "Reverie "(1890), "Danse "(1890), "Ballade "(1890), "Pour le piano "(1896-1901), "D'un cahier d'esquisses "(1903), "Extampes "(1903), "Mazurka "(1891), "Valse romantique "(1890), "Masques "(1904), "L'Isle joyeuse "(1904), and the first series of "Images "(1905): "Reflets dans l'eau, Hommage a Rameau, "and "Mouvement. "In each case the music has been reproduced photographically from original or early editions.
This book has been designed to be used at the piano. Noteheads are large and clearly printed: margins and spaces are adequate for written notes, fingerings, and turnovers. It is also most useful, of course, for analysis or simply for listening along with the music.
