Claude Debussy (1862-1918)
Prelude a l’apres midi d’un Faune
“The music of this prelude is a very free illustration of Mallarmé‘s beautiful poem. By no means does it claim to be a synthesis of it. Rather there is a succession of scenes through which pass the desires and dreams of the faun in the heat of the afternoon. Then, tired of pursuing the timorous flight of nymphs and naiads, he succumbs to intoxicating sleep, in which he can finally realize his dreams of possession in universal Nature.”
