CLAiR de LUNE

CLAiR de LUNE Claude Debussy: handsome, gifted, passionate, a man born to be an artist – and one of
France’s greatest musicians.
Women found this generous and extravagant day-dreamer irresistible, and the most beautiful young woman in Paris abondoned luxury to be with him in a garret.
Whether in Rome, where he pined for Paris and his French mistress, or in Russia, where Tchaikovsky’s patroness employed him as her private pianist, or in Eastbourne where he spent idyllic months after his runaway second marriage had scandalised society, Debussy’s life moved between extremes of happiness and misery, success and seeming failure.
