Claude Debussy
Claude Debussy is a French composer. He is sometimes considered the first Impressionist composer, although he strongly rejected the term. He was one of the most influential composers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born into a family of modest means and less committed to culture, Debussy showed quite a bit of musical talent. the age of 10. Initially, he learned the piano, but found his love for innovative composition, despite the objections of conservative professors at the Conservatory. It took him many years to develop his adult style, and was almost 40 when he gained international fame in 1902 with the only opera he completed, Pelléas et Mélisande. Debussy's orchestral works include Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun, Nocturnes and Images. His music was to a large extent a response against Wagner and the German musical tradition.
