This week: Claude Debussy.
Saint-Saens scoffed that Debussy’s music belonged with the cubist paintings – how right he was. As with Picasso and art, it is impossible to discuss the music in the 20th century without the disruptive vision of Claude Debussy, for whom “music is the silence between the notes.”
Tune in to “A Little Night Music” every night this week, just after 7 o’clock.
