The first time I heard music by Debussy I was 19 and a friend of mine was learning to play Clare de Lune... She could only play the first few bars but I had a very strong reaction to the music and went out of my way to discover more. I am 59 now and I have been playing the piano since I was about 30; I didn't have the opportunity until then, and I am mostly self-taught so my technique is unorthodox and my sight-reading is very poor. I wanted to play the piano even as a child but it wasn't possible. WHen I heard Clare de Lune I told myself I will play it one day. Last year I started to have lessons with a wonderful teacher and I told her my ambition is to play Clare de Lune, and she is helping me to get there. To be able to make this music myself is my dream. I can never tire of it.
Good luck with your dream!! I got soo impressed when I read your comment. You should never give up your deams, even when you think its too late, its never too late to do what you love.
Debussy is unlike other composers. Instead of being dramatic and going all out with an entire orchestra, most of his songs are hauntingly ethereal and beautiful - and produced by a single, lone piano. pure magic.
well he was a piano composer and you composers come from very different time periods and therefore influenced by many different things composers like Mozart, Bach or any big composers you may think of made music long before him and the expressive musical concepts that you hear in this hadn't been explored yet
It's funny how you would think that the human emotions of sadness and joy are polar opposites of eachother, while in reality they feel amazingly similar. Debussy's music made me realise this.
+Peter Timowreef see buddhism. joy and pain are 2 sides of same coin. peace is above them as it transcends desire. debussy is in a sense giving a glimpse into that

@@Dany_the_splendid So basically, his name is Debussy. And De = da, the. Bussy = boy + pussy or they mean pussy in general. So they are making jokes about "the pussy" or "the bussy". Hope this helps you!
I remember the first time I heard Claude. A guy whistled Clair De Lune. It was most beautiful sounds I had ever heard ! I searched for the composer,but it was difficult because it was not the piano and I had no base of reference. Finally after about 3 years of searching , I found Claude. I am a better person for having heard his music. When I was diagnosed with terminal cancer,and given 6 months to live. I would play this album over and over again. Sometimes I would cry, then be filled with wondrous beauty and joy . All while listening to the same song. That was 10 years ago.
Wow, what coincidence. After just driving home amd listening to him, I was thinking to myself, if Claude Monet's paintings were music, this is what it would sound like!
Sometimes I think I'm alone at loving and appreciating these pieces.. At least between my friends.. By then I read all the comments here.. and It's as if you and I were together, people from all over the world, united at listening to this music in an immaginary piano music chamber. Everyone with a personal different life, a story.. But sharing these emotions.
My mother was an excellent classical musician and played Debussy often. She played this music with so much feeling. She has long since passed from this world but every time I hear his music my eyes swell with tears of happiness and remembrance.
The fact that one of the greatest classical artists in history now has comment sections mostly of the same (admittedly mildly amusing) joke over and over is yet another sign that humanity has peaked and we are witnessing the end of our time.
Debussy is the composer of those pieces but but the performer whose name is not given is a real great one too but it seems that nobody cares about his or her name.
i used to listen to piano music, without knowing who the composers were. once i started to pay attention, i realized that debussy composed all of my absolute favorites (classical and otherwise).
+JustAlberlos You may not, perhaps, be aware that Debussy came up during the 1870's, which makes him 19th Century-born. He didn't, however, receive recognition of any real consequence or reach his epitome of classical music notoriety until around 1905 [at the beginning of the 20th Century]. The point is, many of his pieces were composed 'before' the turn of the century. However, if we were back in Paris during the late 19th and early 20th Century's, I would double dare you to call Debussy an impressionist to his face! As for me, out of sheer respect for the man, I would choose not to call him such; or any other musical composer if one really understood what the term implies in a musical connotation. Hint: Milli Vanilli scandal. It's quite different, though, with painters [who impersonate on purpose].
+JustAlberlos He rejected the term "impressionnist" to characterise his music. He is of course not from the classical period.He was very modern in his compositions. Also, 19th century is the century of the romantics, not the classical composers (though debussy was born somewhere around 1870).
Music of the very soul.I listen to this poetic piece and drift off to another world. Sublime, beautiful, soothing. I read Debussy's autobiography once, he suffered for his music. He lived in poverty for many years until he attained success. Sadly he reached success just before he died. He died of ill health, due to a poor diet over many years. He was a musical genius.
I've listened to this one video countless times. Something melancholic, nostalgic and enchanting about Debussy's music that can only be felt, not spoken. What beauty and expression.
+Jessie Lotus Totally assimilate with ya here Jesse! Debussy's music is purely visceral. I love how he constantly shifts the mood and tones so aqueously throughout the course of some of his pieces, it really gives off that element of freedom and purity in his expression

Debussy's music doesn't make your soul suffer or long for something unachievable... unlike the music of Bach for example. I love Bach very much but in times of anxiety you just want to calm down. Debussy's melodies just flow through you without tearing you apart, they fill you with light and calmness.

@@veroniquedambricourt335 Many people know how to play these songs, but there was only 1 person who composed them. But I also think that they could have mentioned their names.
This man had a vision. He saw something that none of us really could but lucky for us, he wrote down all he saw into the music so we could enjoy his vision too.
I wish I had heard Afternoon of a Faun in my own head before I heard it from a symphony orchestra. Then, I could be a genius like Achille-Claude. That, to me, is the most beautiful piece of music ever written. Someone once wrote that Afternoon of a Faun "set the music world on its ear!" I just love it!!

I don't know why Im here. Its 2am, Im not a musician nor plays any instrument, and I have no interest in classical music but why this music/piece moves me this much that my heart keep beating so fast (not drunk or high). God this is beautiful
thanks for the help with my grammar much appreciated. what would youtube be without little assholes scouring the web for grammatical errors and for that sir i thank you! ; )
Yeah I'll never understand the duche bags that go through comments just to say you spelled that wrong. Is this a fucing thesis lol?? The grammar nazis of youtube.
Some people say listening to classical music helps them study. I can't agree. each time I turn such music on I'm so focused on performance and every note I hear I can't do anything more than just listen.
same here, I'm an impressionist fan, not so much on the classical/romantic/baroque style, and I always pay attention to the tonality and chords, I just can't help it

Beautiful!! ... Love Debussey...... My mom was a piano teacher, & I grew up with this beautiful music: ....... Very stirring & emotional....... Thanks so much for posting this.. 🙏😃
When I start to feel my anxiety creeping over my shoulders I some how find Debussy calming my inner hurt, anger, or hate.. Clair De Lune helps me the most.. Closing my eyes and drifting off to another land.. Closing my eyes I see each music note in a different color.. I'm starting to love and appreciate classical music a lot more now..
Debussy’s Clair De Lune is so good, absolutely Devine .... just beautiful . Wish he was still around and alive ....I’d go to his concert no matter where it is.
He soothes the disturbed with his hypnotic yet genius musical talent, leaving the impression that there is safety within his music from the big and strange world we live in.
Debussy broadcasts "vibrations" of, indeed, "safety" by taking us through the barrier into The World of Natural Beauty, especially, the Real Beauty of the "The Not-yet Scientifically Explored Cosmos", and True Sensuousness, thus "rescuing" us from the abuse and dehumanization of "ugliness"---- the "outer face" of Negativity, Abolition of Progress, Dehumanization, Deep inner Cruelty!!
the synergy of joy and misery, the sophistication of his notes mixed with the raw passion which he would play is what makes Debussy one of my favorite composers. the structure is almost mathematical and hypnotic at points.
yes but maths and composing don't require same brain parts and i hate useless maths... i'm supposing doing my maths homeworks, If only it would be on mathematics in music...
I am most receptive to this music when I am thankful and tired. And we listen to this particular compilation with my 4 year old at the very end of the day. Thank you!

Some people critically call this elevator music. Just think, if quality music like this were played on elevators people would be exposed to it if even for a few moments. I believe it could make a difference in the entire human condition : )
Arabesque No. 1 gives me life! I remember when I would listen to classical demos on my keyboard when I was younger (about five or six years ago...I'm 18), and this is one of the songs that hit me. I had to find the sheet music for it and learn it, though it was ahead of my piano level at the time. I had no private tutor, so despite the fact that I was a fast learner, I had to learn at the general speed of the class *sigh*. I'm thankful for that though, because a lot of what I know musically speaking is what I taught myself. I finally played this song at a recital at age 14 or 15. I then became more familiar with Debussy's works and realized that I love the way he communicates through his pieces. I realized that my style is quite similar to his. I guess the point of all this was to give a backstory, for those who may care, as to why exactly Arabesque No. 1 will always be near and dear to me.
Many composers, like Chopin, Beethoven and Mozart, wrote music deliberately to soothe and calm down the listener into a lovely sleepy, dreamy state. It's usually known as nocturnes, or nachtmusik. Other times they'd write music to evoke angry rage, or sadness, or regret or rousing excitement or any of many other emotions in their listeners. Not only in the classical/romantic/ baroque styles, but even in modern rock and jazz. Music has as many emotions as there are emotions itself.
Always a pleasure to come here, and know, anywhere in this world, that we come to listen those masterpieces, quietly, in peace. greetings from France, friends, have a nice day.
Clair de lune, sounds like what love feels like. Starts out slow and sweet, then stretches and fills out your heart. The heaven of laying with your lover.
I love Debussy so much that I can't stop listening for all day long and day after day. So beautiful & relaxing. Hope, in a dream, that he could come back to the world. LOVE !!
Oh, Debussy. I love Debussy. Sometimes all I can think about is Debussy. When Debussy was young, that's when you want Debussy... Just make sure you finish on the Bach. Never finish on Debussy.
With most composers and songs I tend to create scenes, like from a movie, as the music plays. With Debussy, I can't do that, it's so unique and unusual that it doesn't make me think of anything. I am just.... blissful.
1st piece is one of my favourites EVER! My dad and I used to hear it every Saturday night midnight on the "stargazer" - a small PBS quip that was only an informational 3 - 5 minute show that we looked forward to learning what the next meteor shower was or Jupiter was visible from earth, etc. This piece makes me shed a tear and miss those days to some degree. I miss my dad very much.
I have listened to Debussy almost everyday for a couple of years now, his music gets stuck in my head for days at a time. I believe he has literally changed the course of my life for the better. Every chord, the melodies, and his total abandonment of classical rhythmic dogma is just brilliant.
I've just completed a long and arduous unit of study on 4 part harmony with its rules and regulations. Listening to Debussy kept me sane. Thank goodness someone can so effortlessly and beautifully break the rules .

His soul is interpreted through the breath of his music. What I experience in listening is completely spiritual as this is what I believe gifted his mastering style. What a faraway place he takes me to in listening, a place of simple beauty and peacefulness. I personally appreciate the solitude it leaves within me, especially in these stressful and unstable times we are in.
His times were as stressful. He was a bit of a loner, his first woman apparently committed suicide, and he died of cancer in his 50s during the end of World War I. I would agree that his music was sublime. Take care.
Wow, listening to this beautiful music through the head phones, looking at his photo.......thinking.......what sort of a person composes music like this, what were his thoughts and what a legacy he has left us. Cant get my head around it. Looking at his face to see if his genius shines through and Im just left in awe.
I'm naturally inclined to play the drums and percussion - drum kit especially is my love. I thought had gotten a late start with it, starting at the age of 13, but I seemed to pick it up fairly quickly and I was on par in technical skill with several of my drumming peers over the years. That's not to blow my own whistle, I have much to learn as a musician! Anyway, as a drummer I got invited into band in high school, and then college, and now at the age of 24 I'm having great fun in an alternative rock band. Being in a band, you'd never think this drummer, this noisy beatmaker, this rock and roll loving soul... You'd never think he'd melt and collapse into tears upon hearing Clair De Lune. I remember hearing the piece when my older sister was in music school, as she worked her way through some of the more complex arpeggiations and nailing the dynamics just right... I always remembered the tune, the first couple notes of the song, but I would always forget the name of the actual piece! I finally rediscovered the song randomly in a RUclips playlist recently; I recognized the distinct introduction instantly. The emotion. The incredibly artistic and intelligent composition. The expression. It's not like I haven't heard classical music before... But recently it's been different. I don't just feel like I'm hearing it - I'm _listening_ to it, moving with it, flowing with the dynamic shifts and melodies... Perhaps it's just part of maturing as a musician and as a human being, but I have a newfound love for classical. I hope to pick up the piano and learn pieces like this. Thanks for reading if you made it this far
@rammpeth Culture Well, unfortunately my band is no longer together... Creative differences is mainly why we split up. But if you are so inclined to see what we were doing, we were called "Perpetuals". I think everything is still up on Spotify or a quick youtube search should do it - my favorite track that we made is called "Waking Up".
I first listened to Debussy when I was a teenager, my father gave me an album of classical piano music as a gift. At that time he lived in the USA and could get me all kinds of classical music records. I've always loved piano music and classical and baroque music in general. It's beautiful. In the 90' when I was a child there was not much Internet technology, but I learned from these authors thanks to the Larousse dictionary that in the final part of his dictionary brings the anthology of illustrious men in the history of mankind. It was in that book that reading the authors' biographies I read for the first time, as in 1992, the name Chopin, the biography said "Polish descent pianist French ", and I love everything French, in short, I asked my father for a record of classical music and he sent me one where Chopin and Debussy came and I was fascinated, that time marked me forever. Simply beautiful music, beautiful composers. Greetings from Chiapas-México 🇲🇽
From what I've read, I don't think Debussy was actually a good person.. Left his first wife (Rosalie Texier) so depressed she actually attempted to commit suicide. And while she was in the hospital, he didn't even visit her once or pay for any of her medical bills because by that point, he was interested in another woman (Emma Bardac). He ended up hating her too. Heard he was really irresponsible with money as well.
These types of comments always surprise me. Do you expect a Grand person to point at a camera & laugh at how miserable you are? Or be sitting on a throne in every picture or something?
When ur listening to Debussy it kinda feels like sitting on the balcony with a cozy cup of tea feeling the autumn wind blowing through the fingertips and watch the light clouds moving purposelessly ☁️☁️
Someone in the comments said this music is boring... I think this music and classical music in general needs that those listening it to have a good dose of imagination, this kind of music promote thinking, images, emotions and these are not precooked-eaten-digested as in the contemporary pop music. Every few second the image changes as much as the thoughts and the emotions, and all together they make a long fantastic tale and the tale is your own only. While in contemporary music you get one concept (often given in words), one feeling, one emotion and it last almost always the same short time, no space for imagination, it tells you what to think and what to feel. You can just agree or not. Classical music is boring because you do not want get the hassle to think with your brain.
What you said about music, images and emotions is basically clairaudience, undeveloped in most people but nonetheless the seed is there just waiting to grow.
I remember when I used to play cards with my father listening to Debussy. My father is not any longer with me and Debussy brings me back to those memories..... I was a teenager

i used to listen to piano music, without knowing who the composers were. once i started to pay attention, i realized that debussy composed all of my absolute favorites (classical and otherwise).
+Aiodhan O'Connellan (otherwise)
+Aiodhan O'Connellan What is he considered then?
+JustAlberlos You may not, perhaps, be aware that Debussy came up during the 1870's, which makes him 19th Century-born. He didn't, however, receive recognition of any real consequence or reach his epitome of classical music notoriety until around 1905 [at the beginning of the 20th Century]. The point is, many of his pieces were composed 'before' the turn of the century.
However, if we were back in Paris during the late 19th and early 20th Century's, I would double dare you to call Debussy an impressionist to his face! As for me, out of sheer respect for the man, I would choose not to call him such; or any other musical composer if one really understood what the term implies in a musical connotation. Hint: Milli Vanilli scandal. It's quite different, though, with painters [who impersonate on purpose].
+Jodie Christian What does it imply? Im curious.
+JustAlberlos He rejected the term "impressionnist" to characterise his music. He is of course not from the classical period.He was very modern in his compositions. Also, 19th century is the century of the romantics, not the classical composers (though debussy was born somewhere around 1870).
Music of the very soul.I listen to this poetic piece and drift off to another world. Sublime, beautiful, soothing. I read Debussy's autobiography once, he suffered for his music. He lived in poverty for many years until he attained success. Sadly he reached success just before he died. He died of ill health, due to a poor diet over many years. He was a musical genius.
Wow... So sad. :*(

I've listened to this one video countless times. Something melancholic, nostalgic and enchanting about Debussy's music that can only be felt, not spoken. What beauty and expression.
+Jessie Lotus I think you like reading the book "Claire de Lune", Debussy's biography..
those are very nice and kind words
+Jessie Lotus Totally assimilate with ya here Jesse! Debussy's music is purely visceral. I love how he constantly shifts the mood and tones so aqueously throughout the course of some of his pieces, it really gives off that element of freedom and purity in his expression
+Jessie Lotus "After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music" -Aldous Huxley
+Blue Mage i feel exactly same way you've described it... pale pink-blueish cloud....on a cold spring day...

Debussy's music doesn't make your soul suffer or long for something unachievable... unlike the music of Bach for example. I love Bach very much but in times of anxiety you just want to calm down. Debussy's melodies just flow through you without tearing you apart, they fill you with light and calmness.
Exactly!
When I first heard Claire De Lune I fell in love, but then I heard Arabesque. My god.
Debussy is the composer of those pieces but but the performer whose name is not given is a real great one too but it seems that nobody cares about his or her name.
@@veroniquedambricourt335 Many people know how to play these songs, but there was only 1 person who composed them. But I also think that they could have mentioned their names.
those made me fall in love with Debussy's music, they feel magical
Clair*
This man had a vision. He saw something that none of us really could but lucky for us, he wrote down all he saw into the music so we could enjoy his vision too.
I wish I had heard Afternoon of a Faun in my own head before I heard it from a symphony orchestra. Then, I could be a genius like Achille-Claude. That, to me, is the most beautiful piece of music ever written. Someone once wrote that Afternoon of a Faun "set the music world on its ear!" I just love it!!

I don't know why Im here. Its 2am, Im not a musician nor plays any instrument, and I have no interest in classical music but why this music/piece moves me this much that my heart keep beating so fast (not drunk or high). God this is beautiful
Classical music is for everyone, this is the surface.
by far my favorite composer. everything sounds straight out of a dream
Ditto!!!
Beautiful My love
I have never listened to Debussy once in my life until now and I am so moved by his work I am compelled to wright a comment. Beautiful...
thanks for the help with my grammar much appreciated. what would youtube be without little assholes scouring the web for grammatical errors and for that sir i thank you! ; )
babyhear "his grammatical correction was so refreshing" said no one ever...
Yeah I'll never understand the duche bags that go through comments just to say you spelled that wrong. Is this a fucing thesis lol?? The grammar nazis of youtube.
We need more grammar Nazis in this world.

That would be: You are quite welcome, indeed.
With the bombastic pounding of symphony and sonata, along comes the quiet, soft, genteel Debussy. Wonderful balm for the soul. Blessed.
He creates a garden between my ears!

I have the same feeling *.*

Some people say listening to classical music helps them study. I can't agree. each time I turn such music on I'm so focused on performance and every note I hear I can't do anything more than just listen.
same!
Same. I just turn away from what I'm doing and try to analyze what I'm hearing
same here, I'm an impressionist fan, not so much on the classical/romantic/baroque style, and I always pay attention to the tonality and chords, I just can't help it
Yes, every time.
You can listen first, so you stimulate your senses (certain zones of your brain), then start studying, with or without music
I don't understand anything about classical music but this is art, and I know when something is amazing.
Well so start reading about it. The more you know about things you love, the more you'll appreciate them. Fulfill the experience.
You already understand something of classical music, it takes time, keep listening.
This is not classical music though, Dubussy was from the Modernism era.
I'm a ballet dancer and just doing some ballet steps in my room with Debussy's music on makes me feel like a fairy

Very stirring & emotional.......
Thanks so much for posting this..

The smoothest hands in classical music history.
When I start to feel my anxiety creeping over my shoulders I some how find Debussy calming my inner hurt, anger, or hate.. Clair De Lune helps me the most.. Closing my eyes and drifting off to another land.. Closing my eyes I see each music note in a different color.. I'm starting to love and appreciate classical music a lot more now..
He will always be my favourite, just fills my empty blank spaces inside...
Debussy’s Clair De Lune is so good, absolutely Devine .... just beautiful . Wish he was still around and alive ....I’d go to his concert no matter where it is.
I always end up here when I feel sad.
It helps my tiny little broken heart.
Fixes up your tiny, little broken heart and gives you a new, big one.

Me too, it makes life just simpler and more happy
I hope you're better now Brenda
He soothes the disturbed with his hypnotic yet genius musical talent, leaving the impression that there is safety within his music from the big and strange world we live in.
Debussy broadcasts "vibrations" of, indeed, "safety" by taking us through the barrier into The World of Natural Beauty, especially, the Real Beauty of the "The Not-yet Scientifically Explored Cosmos", and True Sensuousness, thus "rescuing" us from the abuse and dehumanization of "ugliness"---- the "outer face" of Negativity, Abolition of Progress,
Dehumanization, Deep inner Cruelty!!
What a wonderful description you gave to his music. Right on target.
ruclips.net/video/W7kOEyCv8aw/видео.html
the synergy of joy and misery, the sophistication of his notes mixed with the raw passion which he would play is what makes Debussy one of my favorite composers. the structure is almost mathematical and hypnotic at points.
yes but maths and composing don't require same brain parts and i hate useless maths... i'm supposing doing my maths homeworks, If only it would be on mathematics in music...
Debussy is so good. I enjoy it every night. I like playing Debussy.

Thanks Gideon, I enjoyed Ravel's piano works very much.

that's great to hear! :)

I totally agree.
Arabesque No. 1 gives me life! I remember when I would listen to classical demos on my keyboard when I was younger (about five or six years ago...I'm 18), and this is one of the songs that hit me. I had to find the sheet music for it and learn it, though it was ahead of my piano level at the time. I had no private tutor, so despite the fact that I was a fast learner, I had to learn at the general speed of the class *sigh*. I'm thankful for that though, because a lot of what I know musically speaking is what I taught myself.
I finally played this song at a recital at age 14 or 15. I then became more familiar with Debussy's works and realized that I love the way he communicates through his pieces. I realized that my style is quite similar to his.
I guess the point of all this was to give a backstory, for those who may care, as to why exactly Arabesque No. 1 will always be near and dear to me.
its dear to me too---can't think of a more enchanting piece of music.
I've loved his music for years. It still calmes me down, and helps me when I need to study or sleep.
Debussy would love to know you fall asleep to his music...
Me too, It helps me to draw or study💫
Many composers, like Chopin, Beethoven and Mozart, wrote music deliberately to soothe and calm down the listener into a lovely sleepy, dreamy state. It's usually known as nocturnes, or nachtmusik. Other times they'd write music to evoke angry rage, or sadness, or regret or rousing excitement or any of many other emotions in their listeners. Not only in the classical/romantic/ baroque styles, but even in modern rock and jazz. Music has as many emotions as there are emotions itself.
I can literally feel my body healing when I hear Arabesque Nº1. Something about the melody is just amazing!
Always a pleasure to come here, and know, anywhere in this world, that we come to listen those masterpieces, quietly, in peace. greetings from France, friends, have a nice day.

U got that from family guy

With most composers and songs I tend to create scenes, like from a movie, as the music plays. With Debussy, I can't do that, it's so unique and unusual that it doesn't make me think of anything. I am just.... blissful.
Debussy's music is very magical it can send you into places that only exists in your mind.
Rêverie (16:46) is an incredibly underrated piece. The first time I heard it I didn't know what it was called but I instantly fell in love with it.

I always thought it was part of a Final Fantasy game soundtrack - really otherworldly
Before Zimmerman was a thing, I could see this being the ending of Inception or Interstellar.
@@atomiccritter6492 To be fair, that piece was played in Dink Smallwood, so there's that for the RPG aspect of the song
It gets played in a lot of Asian dramas and anime tbh.
1st piece is one of my favourites EVER! My dad and I used to hear it every Saturday night midnight on the "stargazer" - a small PBS quip that was only an informational 3 - 5 minute show that we looked forward to learning what the next meteor shower was or Jupiter was visible from earth, etc. This piece makes me shed a tear and miss those days to some degree. I miss my dad very much.
I can relate to that, as I suffered from sleeplessness and that show calmed me down and allowed me to doze off peacefully.
I too was a fan of The Hork. Keep looking up!
Jellybean, Loved that show also and was first drawn to it by this opening piece. Nice to see that someone mentioned this. ty.

I have listened to Debussy almost everyday for a couple of years now, his music gets stuck in my head for days at a time. I believe he has literally changed the course of my life for the better. Every chord, the melodies, and his total abandonment of classical rhythmic dogma is just brilliant.
I've just completed a long and arduous unit of study on 4 part harmony with its rules and regulations. Listening to Debussy kept me sane. Thank goodness someone can so effortlessly and beautifully break the rules .

who is playing?
His soul is interpreted through the breath of his music. What I experience in listening is completely spiritual as this is what I believe gifted his mastering style. What a faraway place he takes me to in listening, a place of simple beauty and peacefulness. I personally appreciate the solitude it leaves within me, especially in these stressful and unstable times we are in.
Concordo com vc.
His times were as stressful. He was a bit of a loner, his first woman apparently committed suicide, and he died of cancer in his 50s during the end of World War I. I would agree that his music was sublime. Take care.
Merci Monsieur Debussy, vous nous avez fait don d'heures de pur enchantement.

the only other youtuber i run into on other videos.
literally the only comment I came looking for
wowweeree guys
The pianist goes so well with Debussy.
Never finish on Debussy..
I consider myself an adequate pianist when it comes to exploring the depths of Debussy.
All jokes aside, these really are the best Debussy renditions I've ever heard
You can't be Debussy whipped, you gotta whip that Debussy! Am I too late for this?
It's never too late to get Debussy.
I wish I discovered Debussy earlier... His pieces are just amazing
Wow, listening to this beautiful music through the head phones, looking at his photo.......thinking.......what sort of a person composes music like this, what were his thoughts and what a legacy he has left us. Cant get my head around it. Looking at his face to see if his genius shines through and Im just left in awe.
i kinda thought the same thing!!!
I love Debussy... is one of my fav composers. Love his music. Absolutely visual.
Athy Harper every body need somebody....to love
I'm naturally inclined to play the drums and percussion - drum kit especially is my love. I thought had gotten a late start with it, starting at the age of 13, but I seemed to pick it up fairly quickly and I was on par in technical skill with several of my drumming peers over the years. That's not to blow my own whistle, I have much to learn as a musician! Anyway, as a drummer I got invited into band in high school, and then college, and now at the age of 24 I'm having great fun in an alternative rock band. Being in a band, you'd never think this drummer, this noisy beatmaker, this rock and roll loving soul... You'd never think he'd melt and collapse into tears upon hearing Clair De Lune. I remember hearing the piece when my older sister was in music school, as she worked her way through some of the more complex arpeggiations and nailing the dynamics just right... I always remembered the tune, the first couple notes of the song, but I would always forget the name of the actual piece! I finally rediscovered the song randomly in a RUclips playlist recently; I recognized the distinct introduction instantly. The emotion. The incredibly artistic and intelligent composition. The expression. It's not like I haven't heard classical music before... But recently it's been different. I don't just feel like I'm hearing it - I'm _listening_ to it, moving with it, flowing with the dynamic shifts and melodies... Perhaps it's just part of maturing as a musician and as a human being, but I have a newfound love for classical. I hope to pick up the piano and learn pieces like this. Thanks for reading if you made it this far
@rammpeth Culture Well, unfortunately my band is no longer together... Creative differences is mainly why we split up. But if you are so inclined to see what we were doing, we were called "Perpetuals". I think everything is still up on Spotify or a quick youtube search should do it - my favorite track that we made is called "Waking Up".
Heard of Debussy from a friend, went to listen, figured out that this is a masterpiece.
I first listened to Debussy when I was a teenager, my father gave me an album of classical piano music as a gift. At that time he lived in the USA and could get me all kinds of classical music records. I've always loved piano music and classical and baroque music in general. It's beautiful. In the 90' when I was a child there was not much Internet technology, but I learned from these authors thanks to the Larousse dictionary that in the final part of his dictionary brings the anthology of illustrious men in the history of mankind. It was in that book that reading the authors' biographies I read for the first time, as in 1992, the name Chopin, the biography said "Polish descent pianist
French ", and I love everything French, in short, I asked my father for a record of classical music and he sent me one where Chopin and Debussy came and I was fascinated, that time marked me forever. Simply beautiful music, beautiful composers. Greetings from Chiapas-México 🇲🇽
To think this man died over 100 years ago. Yet here we are still amazed.
Look at him in the picture, acting like he didn't do anything great
You know what you did Claude!
Don't give me that face
From what I've read, I don't think Debussy was actually a good person.. Left his first wife (Rosalie Texier) so depressed she actually attempted to commit suicide.
And while she was in the hospital, he didn't even visit her once or pay for any of her medical bills because by that point, he was interested in another woman (Emma Bardac).
He ended up hating her too.
Heard he was really irresponsible with money as well.
All the beautiful music comes from wife beaters and lecherous brutes.
VonSmore what does that have to do with the original comment?
This great but look at his eyes. I see joy like he knows he is going to change music forever
These types of comments always surprise me. Do you expect a Grand person to point at a camera & laugh at how miserable you are? Or be sitting on a throne in every picture or something?
When ur listening to Debussy it kinda feels like sitting on the balcony with a cozy cup of tea feeling the autumn wind blowing through the fingertips and watch the light clouds moving purposelessly ☁️☁️
I can’t stop not to wonder how beautiful his mind was that moment...
You know what they say, “the best things in life are ad-free”.
Someone in the comments said this music is boring...
I think this music and classical music in general needs that those listening it to have a good dose of imagination, this kind of music promote thinking, images, emotions and these are not precooked-eaten-digested as in the contemporary pop music.
Every few second the image changes as much as the thoughts and the emotions, and all together they make a long fantastic tale and the tale is your own only. While in contemporary music you get one concept (often given in words), one feeling, one emotion and it last almost always the same short time, no space for imagination, it tells you what to think and what to feel. You can just agree or not.
Classical music is boring because you do not want get the hassle to think with your brain.
Some people will find sunsets boring.. not everybody has attraction for beauty apparently.

No need to tear one thing down to build up another. All music is beautiful.

My condolences.
