Images pour orchestre / Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune
Album by Claude Debussy & London Symphony Orchestra & André Previn
This release is a collection of orchestral works by Claude Debussy, composed in 1894 and in 1905–07. They exemplify Debussy's impressionistic orchestral language, characterised by colourful orchestration, modal and whole‑tone harmonies, fluid rhythmic phrasing and an emphasis on atmosphere that marked a key development in his mature style and in early 20th‑century orchestral practice.
