Debussy: The Master Musicians by Edward Lockspeiser is a comprehensive biography of the French composer Claude Debussy. The book provides a detailed account of Debussy's life, from his childhood in Paris to his rise as one of the most influential composers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Lockspeiser explores Debussy's musical influences and innovations, including his use of impressionism and his rejection of traditional tonality. The book also delves into Debussy's personal life, including his relationships with women and his struggles with depression and illness. Throughout the book, Lockspeiser draws on primary sources such as letters, diaries, and contemporary reviews to provide a nuanced and insightful portrait of Debussy and his music. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in Debussy's life and work, as well as for those interested in the history of music in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
