As a piano student, this album has been amazing. Clair de lune, arabesque 1, reverie, are some of my favorites and they are done impeccably. I have been so inspired by this album and have now played at recital clair de lune, am working on arabesque 1, and hope to soon play reverie. I could listen to this for years. Debussy is a gem and so is Francois. Get this music even if you don't like piano because it will change your mind.

is there a reason i can't purchase the whole album? the only option that comes up for the album is "view" and though i can buy the songs one by one, there is no "buy album" option... is this a mistake or are we only allowed to buy one by one?
Do I really need a title?

I hardly need write a review for this, but anyone looking to step into the world of classical music would do well to download Debussy, and this is a good album to pick. If you're looking to get into french composers or impressionist era then this is also great for you. If you just like to hear pretty classical peices whilst relaxing or painting, then I recommend this to you as well. [Also a side note for some of the below comments: if Edward Cullen got you to download Clair De Lune, thats great and all, but I implore you to use this time of expanding your knowledge of classical music to expand your world of reading. Twilight novels are some of the most poorly written books ever to come about regardless of how much the story entices you, and the characters show all the faces of abusive relationships and somehow still come off as acceptable. If you like romance, read Austen or Bronte not Meyer! ]

My goal was to search the world for the music most pleasing to my ear. On my journey through iTunes and the internet, I stumbled upon Claude Debussy. Arabesque. Clair de Lune. Nocturne. I can listen to these songs over and over again. I know it sounds like a cliche but it is very easy to get lost in his music. Highly recommend!! Ear Candy!!
By the way, when you leave a critique of a piece of art such as this the bulk of your comments should be about the composer. Why post a review HERE to praise another work AHEM twilight fans...

Debussy is simply fantasitc and elegant. His music is able to invoke images of beauty and love. Although I like that more people are listening to his music I think its unfortunate that a lot come from the twilight fanbase and only listen to him because Edward loves it, I feel that they can't apperciate how amazing the music is because all they can focus on is that its TWILIGHT!!!! like a little teeny bopper, I think its kind of insulting the music, people need to feel the music, let the music take you away, not makeyou feel closer to a fictional character, really grow up people.

Probably the dumbest review I've ever read.
Sweet and Innocent

These songs are so sweet, especially Clair De Lune, which expresses a timeless innocence untainted by todays fast-paced society. These songs represent a part of society that is simple, sweet, and unbelievably amazing. I would recommend this music to many, because even though it is categorized as classical, it contains a wonderful magic that can reach across genres and pull people in by their heart strings. Lovely, sweet, and honest.
I DISAGREE with IMustBeElmo (bizarre name)

Okay, if teens(by the way I'm one of them) check out Debussy because of Edward Cullen then good for them! They are reading AND were introduced to a whole new genre of music. Some people are so stupid! Whatever.
Debusy's music is beautiful especially Nocturne.
For stupid

For the person who thinks it's stupid for someone to gain knowledge of these beatifull piano pieces, no matter how, is absurd!! Does it really matter how you came by this, as long as you apperciate it.
Actually, I'm thanking the 'Twilight' books....

I read 'Twilight' and immediatley fell in love with it. I looked up Debussy on iTunes, and opened my eyes to classical music, if you will. I've spent at least $80 on classical music I'd never even heard of, and look where it got me. I've begun listening to my town's only classical station, and it really relaxes me. Debussy is still my faveourite, though.:)
