G. Henle Verlag Claude Debussy - Works for Two Pianos Henle Music Folios Softcover by Debussy Edited by Heinemann

Whose ears are not instantly filled with the dreamy flute solo when Debussy's Prelude à l'apres-midi d'un faune is mentioned? Very few people know that before he wrote the orchestral score Debussy made a version for two pianos. Both versions should be seen as being independent, and they differ in some details. The differences are revealed in our edition, as are Debussy's entries concerning the work in his copy of the score. The volume also contains the Spanish impression Lindaraja and the three pieces En blanc et noir, in which Debussy addresses the horrors of World War I. Andreas Groethuysen, one half of the famous piano duo Tal & Groethuysen, provided the fingerings.
