by Henry Sloan

An impression of moonlightthis revolutionary masterpiece is many people's first experience with classical music; but don't mistake its fame for simplicity!

Introduction

Claude Debussy (1862-1918) was a French composer. His career spanned the late Romantic era into the early modern era of music. His music is often labeled "Impressionist"in analogy with French painters like Claude Monet. Though Debussy rejected this labelthe unique sparseness and inexactness of his music makes the comparison clear.

Clair de Lune means "moonlight" in Frenchand is the title of Debussy's defining masterpiece. The piece is contained in Debussy's Suite bergamasqueand the names of both the suite and the piece come from a poem by Paul Verlaine. The piece has gained fame for its simplicityvarietyand refreshing use of silence.
