In short, focused chapters building on recent research, contributors chart the influences, relationships and performances that shaped Debussy's creativity, and the ways he negotiated the complex social and professional networks of music, literature, art, and performance (on and off the stage) in Belle Époque Paris. It probes Debussy's relationship with some of the most influential '-isms' of his time, including his fascination with early music and with the 'exotic', and assesses his status as a pioneer of musical modernism and his continuing popularity with performers and listeners alike.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBContributor: Simon Trezise (Edited by)Author: Simon TreziseGenre: Music Dance & TheatreBook Series: Composers in ContextItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 158mmItem Width: 25mmItem Weight: 670gRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
