Description
Claude Debussy's famous Clair de lune is the third piece of the Suite bergamasque for piano. The Suite, originally composed in 1890 but revised between then and its publication in 1905, is the first real flowering of Debussy's genius for piano music. Its name comes from Verlaine's poem "Clair de lune", which means "moonlight" in French. It is written in 9/8 meter, marked andante très expressif, and to be played mostly pianissimo.

This arrangement for 8 woodwinds, glockenspiel, vibraphone, xylophone and harp (or piano) aims to bring out the dreamy, serene and mildly Impressionistic characteristic of the original work by exploring the vibrant musical colours of this unusual combination of instruments.
