A Brief History of Debussy

[@kite3060]

Every time I listen to him, I feel like I’m in a dream like state. Like there is something so familiar, as if I belonged to a world where time has passed and lived a different life.

[@BBPalmer420]

That’s because you do belong to that world.. this is not the world, this world is a classroom for our soul to learn.. but when we get done with school, we go home.. that is the home that Debussy channeled in his music. The very same home that you feel when you listen to him., we are all from that home, and it’s where will all return to one day. Some sooner than others ❤

[@DaniBadger777]

Claire de Lune always brings me to tears. An incredible and timeless masterpiece.

[@shalomccs]

He was ahead of his time. He used progressive jazz tones variations when nobody knew about them.

[@annacapriati8181]

Listening himself playing his music I also recognize jazz tones variations that I miss when I listen his music played by others.

[@TREMOpsulaR]

@Ян noob

[@lesturner9849]

My favorite composer! Love his sound.

[@julianmanjarres1998]

From what I heard, Satie was NOT a gifted pianist... He was apparently very mediocre and was told my his conservatory teacher that his only talent lied in the area of composition.

[@eddyyaeji6769]

Fake it till you make it, son! Being homeless fucking sucks.

[@TREMOpsulaR]

It’s reflected in his compositions as well. While they are great compositionally, none are challenging.

[@viewer7138]

from what ive heard he was a satanist

[@hhsieh87]

was searching for Debussy videos just to make sure I dont pronounce the name wrong (thanks, family guy :( ) but ended up enriched another 10 minutes of my life. Thank you for making these videos. :)

[@miki410]

This was a wonderful introduction to the composer, thanks so much!

[@kalelake3067]

Very good; thank you..

[@Jennynan09]

I am playing his first Deux Arabesque! He is a musical legend!

[@reev9759]

Great video! It's important to note his healthy relationship with Stravinsky, as well.

[@ayeletdrago]

what... kind... of relationship

[@solarean]

@@ayeletdrago he had a daughter don't worry ...which died at the age of 19. RIP

[@Ale-ig6xm]

I played a section of Clair de lune when I graduated from middle school (where I live you have a big exam at the end of the three years of middle school, and only if you pass this exam you can move on to high school), Debussy is definetly one great composer :)

[@viewer7138]

i get home from work and ram my frustration into debussy. works like a charm

[@SirMillz]

One of my favorite composers, up there with Chopin

[@MarsLos10]

43k subscribers? Woohoo, Allysia you've come very far :) I remember when you reached the 10k subs, I commented about that and you anwsered that you shared a high-five moment with your partner for reaching 10.000. So I guess you've shared more high-fives throughout this KZbin journey. Well done! :D

[@PianotvNet]

Many high fives have been had. Thanks! :)

[@kaymuldoon3575]

My favorite piece of his is Arabesque. It makes me think of a Monet painting.

[@WilliamTanaka]

Debussy is an inspiration for all of us who loves a married person. Just kidding 😄

[@WrvrUgoThrUR]

Well I'll be!....No wonder I connect with this guy's music. He was an iconoclast!! Not always easy to get along with, but they produce the best art it seems.

[@kaiandchanellesimmons502]

Can you do the same on Rachmaninoff and on the easiest to hardest music of Rachmaninoff. Thank you for this, I am just starting to learn a couple of Debussy pieces. Kai

[@marcelob8219]

Good quality content, thank you for making this video

[@mahlina1220]

Very interesting!

[@ScarboroughAJishot]

Love this video!!

[@drunio1504]

Yeow...please correct / eliminate the Killer Echo in the video, sound bouncing off hard surfaces. Suggest using a good quality lapel mic or studio microphone. Otherwise exceptional 🍊

[@Joe_Yacketori]

I've seen plenty of people complaining about the "first" commenters, but I've never been that person before!

[@froztyfoxy9555]

on the captions "claude wc" Im dying 🤣

[@julioatrejo7687]

Could you possibly do a video of Liszt's 12 Transcendental Études?

[@samuelrappaport6162]

Thank you!!!!

[@bSharpHacker]

Cool, I have something to watch on TV tonight :)

[@pyotrillchtchaikovsky39]

Could you please do one about Bizet? The man which composed songs like Carmen Overture and Habanera Overture.

[@Kevtastic10]

Love these history vids! Rachmaninoff next?

[@SCRIABINIST]

fun fact you missed that Debussy met Liszt in 1886 and complemented Liszt on how good of a pedalist he was

[@robertoa.m.3984]

I'm reconciled with you because you obviously love his music: for me CD is the finest intellect ever to touch music. Totally unique.

[@enrique203909]

Thanks for the value!

[@SlimEstrada]

Thank you for this. I only realised his genius after listening to a lunchtime concert at St, Martins, in London

[@thenakedsingularity]

that Debussy certainly gets around ...

[@Julia-dv9xg]

Great video! Thank you

[@Ramblinradish225]

Please do one about Alexander Scriabin

[@Evert-Kramer]

My thoughts exactly while watching this video.

[@ahenobarbushenocied5631]

Do one about Brahms 😤😤

[@SmokeyJoe4991]

Please do Igor Stravinsky :)

[@matt_pacheco_music]

This is amazing!! Great job

[@FilipeMoreiraOficial]

Great video!

[@srothbardt]

von Meck called him "my little Bussy." He played piano in her trio.

[@kaisfp]

I didn't know Debussy had such cr@ppy morals (messing with married women relationship while him being married to another woman).

[@vana.g4475]

nice !!! regards from Mexico !

[@elyadani6405]

Can u do brief history of Sergei Rachmaninoff? Love your videos btw.

[@fryderykchopin3974]

I'm a generation of debussy student! I love this fact.

[@peterrobertnixon2243]

Debussy is the missing link between the 19th and 20th century. I heard a theory that he was inspired by traditional Javanese music which was performed at the Paris expo

[@tacoguy764]

You forgot he met Franz Lizzst

[@mf_nano]

No he didnt

[@adamingi]

@@mf_nano yes he met him in 1886

[@quicktechnikk3058]

Hey Allysia 😀 Next time can you do an introduction to a piano piece "Adriana" or maybe the background story of the pieces ?

[@luccassennadacosta1476]

Do you know Villa Lobos?,he was a great composer here...

[@carlosgonzalez5167]

It’s crazy how much influence Wagner had on people. Including Hitler, Mussolini, Nietzche, and know I learn Debussy as well.

[@x2mars]

Cool eye 👁 makeup 💄

[@jordanhoehn8441]

Duh bussy

[@SeekerofTruths]

Who could forget Chow Chow. Who Debussy wrote 'The Childrens Corner' in her honor.

[@claudiascott6654]

Wonderful summary .. thanks from a Debussy fan!

[@Moon-od6yg]

"Debussy" lmao

[@genemckeel1432]

He also had an use of tri- tones

[@axiomist4488]

Listen to (ISAO) TOMITA's version of this. It's incredibly beautiful. Listen with earphones and listen to the very end. It makes me feel as if my soul were flying up into space ! See: "04 Tomita - Clair de Lune (Suite Bergamesque, No3)" in KZbin.

[@lucianadiacipriani5220]

Greetings from Austria

[@Crab_Masher]

Anyone get confused at 5:57 when she mentioned Debussy got married to Emma, and thought that it was his daughter?

[@jimjoyce4423]

Sweet heart, you are absolutely gorgeous

[@ALF8892]

Images set II and Lisle Joyouse are as good as it gets

[@DottoreSM]

one about scriabin pls

[@westfield90]

Are there any recordings of him playing his pieces?

[@HigorPereiraSilvadeSousa]

Não entendo nada, mas estou assistindo.

[@forbiddenfursona]

Can you do Shostakovich sometime? :0

[@revalinarahmat4729]

5:45 Shit, I thought my computer crashed. Nearly gave me a heart attack! 😅

[@emilyalachopin4175]

Finally!

[@ricp7116]

As always a great video!!! Congratulations!!! By the way, just a question: what do you think are the hardest grade 7 rcm pieces? I'd like to tackle those before moving on to grade 8. Thank you in advance

[@PianotvNet]

Not sure about hardest, but I always find the Baroque and Classical pieces to be the most difficult. There are a few Bach inventions at this level, and some of Mozart's Viennese Sonatinas, which I personally think are pretty challenging.

[@ricp7116]

pianoTV thanks for the answer!! I have already learned invention no 1 and wanted to learn the others and i am also tackling a scarlatti sonata. I wanted to play the viennese sonatinas too and you just confirm my intentions!!! Thanks once more!!

[@yukiefromoz2573]

I just wanted to know how to pronounce his name 😅 But it was interesting all the same 🙂

[@antoinelaurin5441]

Hey just to let you that you are pronouncing "Debussy" incorrectly. It's not "Debu-z" It's Debus-c" like "sea". Nice video by the way!

[@khole15]

also cannes

[@lkwalden7]

She is saying it exactly right then. She is not using a 'z' sound.

[@ironically7561]

2 Timothy 2:19 some french people actually pronounce the s like she did

[@raminagrobis6112]

@@ironically7561 Not for pronouncing Debussy. It's pronounced only one way, and it's "-sea" indeed.

[@ironically7561]

@@raminagrobis6112 I agree. I meant Cannes? I've heard some french people saying the s at the end. Is that right? I dont know, it confuses me as i thought it was silent

[@martinburns7395]

Nice video, but she calls him DebbieC and his pal Eric Settee.

[@4akat]

Debussy is perfection that is missing a piece

[@bennypaulos2801]

Please erik satie history

[@kittyneko7]

Chow chow? I think it’s pronounced “Shoe Shoe”. 😅

[@TheHeroRobertELee]

The girls a huge piano n00b.

[@PianotvNet]

Ha ha! Thanks, it's not a name I've heard anyone speak before. I looked for a pronunciation everywhere online but couldn't find one!

[@SlimEstrada]

Bayreuth is pronounced Bi-roit...my singing teacher is from there....

[@luigipati3815]

I must be the only one who detests Clair de lune, it makes me always think about the zillionth tale of the beautiful princess waking up in the woods while being surrounded by singing little birds and smiling squirrels....but that's just moi

[@solarean]

listen to seong's playing of it

[@alistairproductions]

I like how there's nothing I'm supposed to pay attention to literally w his stuff and nothing he's trying to say . It's all speaking for itself if I slow down

[@coleb.t.6905]

Please do Rachmaninoff

[@252Ron]

Debussy was a loverboy! Crazy loverboy! 😂

[@ryanellis4474]

The presenter is cute :-)

[@SamiGold]

Richard Wagner!!!!!

[@polloloci21]

Love Chopin but Claire de Lune is hard to beat.

[@robertoa.m.3984]

You are a very crazy lady....but I'm falling 🌠🍁 for you hard! Where do you live?..... I'd be happy to meet you sometime....

[@robertoa.m.3984]

......but endearing

[@deathkampdrone]

Nice video. But what is so creative about the name Claude Emma?! I just don't get it. Why the laughter? Totally standard name.

[@Hypaisalittleweirdo]

Probably cause the guy's full name is Claude Debussy, so he just named his daughter after himself. The "great" name thing was probably sarcasm.

[@olga2023]

De-byoocy

[@baichenluo7880]

[@oysteinsoreide4323]

Was the blue-screen at about 5:30-6:00 intentional?

[@royzevisionneur2045]

yeah, wtf was that??!

[@3storiesUp]

It scared the bejesus out of me ..

[@Ms12369]

Watched this just to figure out how to say his name. Still not sure. Day boocie? Dey boochie? Deh boosie. Day boosie? Dey boosie. Dey boo see. Dey bew see. Dey boo see. Dey bous see. Imma ask my French friend :p

[@Ms12369]

@Philip Gomez first of all, fuck you for making me google what pedantic means. Second of all, I see nothing morally wrong with not being able to figure out how to say a word/name so chill ✋

[@karawelchharp]

Love these videos! But you're pronouncing Debussy and Satie incorrectly.

[@zamplify]

I have always found Debussy's melodies to be strikingly similar to Wagner's.
