This beautiful melody from the French master of romance makes an ideal piano which can be used in a great variety of circumstances from weddings to funerals.

Composés entre 1909 et 1912, les deux livres de Préludes pour Piano comptent parmi les œuvres tardives de Claude Debussy (1862-1918). Elles révèlent une grande diversité de styles, de textures, de climats et d’émotions, et constituent un condensé de toutes les particularités du langage de Debussy. La Fille aux Cheveux de Lin est le huitième prélude du premier livre. Il est célèbre pour sa profondeur émotionnelle malgré sa simplicité technique et harmonique. Nul ne sait qui fut la fille aux cheveux de lin, mais cette miniature merveilleusement subtile réveille notre imaginaire.

No composer in musical history has taught the pianist more new and permanently valuable things, says Grove's Dictionary of Music and Musicians, describing Impressionist Claude Debussy. This compilation of the composer's most colorfully atmospheric works attests to his extraordinary powers of invention and to his reassessment of keyboard color and technique. Twenty selections range from such fanciful pieces as the impudent Golliwog's Cake Walk and the misty Sunken Cathedral to the brilliant Fireworks. A rich compilation of works by France's most innovative and influential composer, this convenient and modestly priced volume will be welcomed by pianists, students, teachers, and music lovers. Dover original compilation of works from authoritative editions.
