Claude Debussy's (1862-1918) first began writing the SUITE BERGAMASQUE (CD 82/ L 75) in 1890, then revised it significantly just before it was published in 1905. Debussy was reluctant initially to see these early piano works published at all as they were written before he developed his mature style, but a publisher convinced him that they would be successful given the fame Debussy had achieved since he first wrote them. The third movement, CLAIR DE LUNE, is one of the most famous works in classical music and certainly among Debussy's best-known pieces. This newly engraved edition of CLAIR DE LUNE has been completed by Richard Dowling.
