Claude Debussy's music combines late nineteenth-century Romanticism with a soundscape that has been called an audible version of an Impressionist painting. This 2-CD set includes Debussy's most frequently performed and recorded works, including 'Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun,' excerpts from 'Images,' and his opera 'Pelleas and Melisande.'
