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?.

Debussy's only string quartet composed in 1893 was his first masterwork. Together with two further works from this creative period Prélude l?après-midi d?un faune and Pelléas et Mélisande the quartet established the composer's position as the rising star of the French music scene.Discrepancies existed from the initial publication in 1894 between the score corrected and seen into print by the composer and the parts not corrected by him. At a later point Debussy made a large number of corrections and alterations in a copy of the first edition; these alterations have been incorporated in this Bärenreiter Urtext edition.Thisscholarly-critical edition utilises all sources including the composer's letters which offer a valuable insight into the genesis of the composition.
