Paris at the turn of the 20th century was obsessed with the interrelations of the arts. It was a time when artists and writers spoke of poetry as music, sounds as colors, and paintings as symphonies. The music of Claude Debussy, with its unique textures and dazzling colors,
was the perfect counterpart to the bold new styles of painting in France. Claude Debussy stands as the first composer wholly of the Modern era, one of the major influences on much of the music that came after. Debussy essentially redefined music: harmonically, rhythmically, and formally. He aimed to create a "free music," which obeyed only its own inner logic, rather than a set of pre-ordained conventions. Music after Debussy sounds substantially different from the music that came before. Not bad for a composer whose stated aim was mainly to write a music "without sauerkraut." |
You are invited to an evening of the music of Claude Debussy, music that is brilliant, rich in sonority and textures, evocative, ecstactic ......
The program will include: Claire de Lune Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun (transcribed for solo piano) The Sunken Cathedral Reflections in water (from Images) En bateau (In a Boat) Pagodes (from Estampes) Jardins sous la Pluie (Gardens in the Rain, from Estampes) ... and more |
