(1890)
Claude Debussy, composer
Prelude from Suite Bergamasque, written by Claude Debussy in 1890, but not
published until 1905, is in A-B-A form.
The later publishing followed stylistic updating, reflecting Debussy’s
desire to revise the original composition with more current musical ideas and
stylistic considerations.
Bill Holcombe’s transcription highlights the unique color of the
woodwind ensemble, and captures the gleam and transparency, with full
impressionistic sonorities.
