A little Debussy for a Sunday
My daughter shares her birthday with Claude Debussy (1862 - 1918), a French composer whose music I have always enjoyed. I didn't know about their common birthday until recently (thanks to the August 22nd Google Doodle). It made me pull out my Debussy music for a listen. Here's his Reverie, a gorgeous piece for this Sunday, played by Aldo Ciccolini. Oh, to be able to make music like this! Four and a half minutes of a very lovely dream... enjoy!
