Composed between 1906 and 1908, the Children's Corner Suite was
written to capture the essence of childhood with charm, grace and
humor. Debussy's intention was to create moods and sensations and,
utilizing his typical harmonic richness, he succeeds in an
appealing and joyous fashion. This edition is based on not only the
original autograph manuscripts but also on Debussy's sound
recording of these pieces.

Like his predecessor Chopin, Debussy discovered new possibilities
and refinements in the art of playing and composing for the piano.
His compositions and transcriptions for piano four hands are among
his most inventive and interesting works. This volume contains
"Marche Ecossaise, " written specifically for piano four hands, and
the composer's transcription for four hands of "La""Mer.""
"These works display both the brilliant pianism at the heart of
Debussy's musical imagery and the composer's affinity for the
unexpected -- a quality that allowed many of his compositions to
unfold like highly sophisticated improvisations. Reprinted here
from authoritative French editions, they will challenge and delight
pianists with their unique qualities.

"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 new 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 "Golligwogg'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.
