Les Cloches
Music: Claude Debussy (1862-1918)
Words: Paul Bourget (1852-1935)
Les Cloches (The Bells) evokes a deep human feeling. The rolling piano figures, through which a melancholy yet peaceful melody weaves, set the backdrop for Bourget’s poem about memory - recalled by distant bells heard from a large forest.
Claude Debussy composed eighty seven songs, some are unfinished. He was a revolutionary “impressionistic” composer. His use of harmonic color and non-traditional scales proved very popular and influential.
