Claude Debussy

Six Epighrapes antiques

The present edition of the Six Épigraphes Antiques is an excerpt from the Complete Works of Claude Debussy (Series I, volume 4). The Six Épigraphes Antiques are a prime example of a highly successful double transformation of a former work (Les Chansons de Bilitis): initially as a piano four-hands version, and subsequently as a version for solo piano. The former was published at the beginning of 1915, followed shortly thereafter by the latter version, which is the subject of this current edition. 2012 marks 150 years since the birth of Claude Debussy and to celebrate this anniversary, Durand have made available more titles individually fromtheir critical editions of his works.
