Sonata for Flute Viola and Harp-The middle work in the three late chamber music sonatas was composed in spring 1915 directly after the Cello sonata (HN 633). The innovative combination of sounds a Wind instrument a Stringed instrument and a Pluckedinstrument greatly contributes to the impression of restrained melancholy. Debussy himself confirmed it saying: ?It is terribly sad. And I do not know whether one should laugh or cry about it? Perhaps both at the sametime?? On another occasion he emphasised the similarities with his own compositional style of the 1890s remarking of the sonata: ?It reminds me of a very old Claude Debussy the one of the Nocturnes?.

Using photographs provided by the National Library of France harpist Carl Swanson has documented and corrected nearly 300 discrepancies between the composer's intent and the Durand 1916 edition.The corrections made in this edition consist of musical indications being omitted misplaced or inverted; dynamic markings that are in the manuscriptbut not the printed version have been added wrong and misaligned notes have been corrected musical indications previously omitted in individual parts have been added and intended durations of dynamic and tempo changes have been corrected.Debussy was one of the first composers to make extensive use of musical indications and was extremely meticulous in his scores. To read a score of his with missing misplaced or wrong directions is a significant as reading a score with missing or incorrect notes. Now for the first time in history Debussy's Sonate Pour Flute Alto Et Harpe has been printed exactly as the composer intended.
