Sonatas for 'cello and piano

Album by Claude Debussy & Gabriel Fauré & André Lévy & Geneviève Joy & Guy Fallot & Monique Fallot

Sonata for Cello and Piano is a composition by French composer Claude Debussy, completed in 1915. The sonata exemplifies Debussy's late style, characterised by economy of material, transparent textures, modal harmonies and lyrical cello writing, and it stands among his final chamber works that signalled a move away from the Romantic tradition towards a more concise, modern idiom.
