Claude Debussy: Piano Music (1888-1905)

I bought this book for a student of mine who enjoyed her first introduction to Debussy so much that I knew she would appreciate an entire volume of him, and I would enjoy going beyond Clair de Lune and the Arabesques. While I've only had the book for a bit over a year, it seems to be fine quality as the binding goes. The pages are plenty thick as well and the book has no problem staying open if you gently crease the pages. My student and her brother are both enjoying the decently challenging pieces in this book. Since I don't know Debussy's works well, my student and I have found a great companion to this music book to be the following little book which gives information on each of Debussy's piano pieces and stylistic advice, written by someone who knew Debussy well: The Piano Works of Claude Debussy (Dover Books on Music) .

I lost my first copy of this book, and I missed it to much I had to buy a new copy. The music is very easy to read, the book lies flat when opened, and the book has an excellent selection of pieces. I just wish Dover would publish all Debussy's piano music in this same format.

I am a newbie learner, and have a great piano teacher that have supported my learning through working with original pieces. The fun that I am having is spurring me to collect from the of 'Greats' and their music. This is a great collection of Debussy, and the productiion is top notch, and quality is great and also the print is easy to read and well spaced. The binding is good, but I tend to convert most of these books into spiral-bound for ease of placing it on the piano. For the price, I highly recommend this edition as a collection of Debussy's music.

Beautifully made, very durable. Sewn binding, good clear printing, very accurate text, low price. Has to be considered a best buy. I recommend this volume without reservation.

What was great was to be able to locate all of Debussy's piano music in one place. This was a present for my son and he loves having the complete Suite Bergamasque. This 160+ page piano book is worth twice its price.

I’ll start by saying I love this book. I grew up playing from this book, so I decided to rebuy it as an adult. The only miss for me is the print quality, as others have mentioned - particularly in Deux Arabesques. It’s hard to tell what’s a sharp vs a natural.

Debussy is definitely one of the most genius composers ever. This collection contains many of his shorter piano works and it's great to have. The print is larger so it's easy to play from. I wish it had some fingerings, but I guess you can't ask for everything.

Very nice well bound music book. Am very pleased with the purchase. Bought the book for one song as it was not much more than just the sheet music for the one song - Better deal, and now I have the option to play the other songs too.
