Nocturnes for Orchestra in Full Score (Dover Miniature Music Scores)

Described by the composer as a "study in gray painting," this three-movement work exemplifies the aural impressionism synonymous with Debussy's name. Shaded by his unique orchestral palette, three evocative scenes include the summer love of "Nuages," the celebration of "Fétes," and the seduction of the "Sirèns."The work is reproduced here from an authoritative edition, complete with bar-numbered movements for easy reference. Ideal for study in the classroom, at home, or in the concert hall, this affordable miniature-score edition offers music lovers, performers, and students an opportunity to appreciate the splendor of Debussy's art.
