This completely revised second edition of The Poetic Debussy contains the most recent discoveries in the composer's oeuvre, including a number of hitherto unknown songs. The texts of all of Debussy's songs, both in the original French and with revised English translations on the facing page, are collected in chronological order, with notes and location of sources.
In addition, Margaret Cobb has brought together a fascinating selection of Debussy's letters which have poetic references, and has updated the notes on those twenty-six compositions based on or inspired by literary texts. This work will prove an invaluable aid to performers, scholars and students, as it contains the texts, with translation, of the full output of Debussy's songs, describes his works derived from literary sources, and includes important background material.
