La mer, trois esquisses symphoniques pour orchestre (French for The sea, three symphonic sketches for orchestra), or simply La Mer (i.e. The Sea), is an orchestral composition (L 109) by the French impressionist composer Claude Debussy. It was started in 1903 in France and completed in 1905 on the English Channel coast in Eastbourne. The premiere was given by the Lamoureux Orchestra under the direction of Camille Chevillard on 15 October 1905 in Paris. The piece was initially not well received - partly because of inadequate rehearsal and partly because of Parisian outrage over Debussy's having recently left his first wife for the singer Emma Bardac[citation needed]. But it soon became one of Debussy's most admired and frequently performed orchestral works, and has become more so in the ensuing century.- wikipedia

Debussy does not sound like Gustav Holst or John Williams! They might sound like Debussy!

When look at him from 21st century many people cannot see but Debussy was a real revolutionary! I loooove him!

@Lladybug68 Au lieu de demander qu'on fasse tes devoirs, écoute ce morceau et va te cultiver, putain de plèbe.

est-ce-que quelqu'un peut me dire comment cette chanson lui fait resentir? (devoir de musique et j'aurais besoin d'aide ;s)

@agentmabus333 NOT BEFORE I CALL PHILLIP GLASS A MINIMALIST TO HIS FACE

@GabeAthouse Don't tell Debussy that, though. He might flip a lid.

とても綺麗。

@LaPersonaNonGrata not romantically, impressionistically

I definately hear an eastern influence on this overall not just in the ending but throughout with the stepwise motion chosen in this piece and the instruments chosen to be the highlight of this piece
