Debussy's sole completed opera was given its premiere at Paris'
Opera Comique on April 30, 1902. It was the culmination of an
eight-year effort on the composer's part. Though not an immediate
sensation like Puccini's "Madame Butterfly" two years later in
Milan, the five-act lyric drama, after the identically titled play
by Maeterlinck, enjoyed a successful run in the first two decades
of the 20th century. This new vocal score is a digitally-enhanced
reprint of the one issued in Paris by A. Durand et Fils in 1907,
with an English translation of the text by Harry Grafton Chapman
appearing beneath the original French. Now available in a
convenient, readable A4 format at an affordable price.
