Composed in 1905, this collection features three contrasting pieces that are concise, dramatic, and rich in vivid sound imagery. Debussy established Impressionism as a piano style, employing a lush musical language to convey the mood and essence of each piece. The English translations of the French titles by Maurice Hinson, along with helpful practice suggestions, enhance the experience. Additionally, the volume includes an excellent CD from the Naxos label, providing listeners with a complete auditory experience of Debussy's work.
