Préludes: Livres I & II

Album by Claude Debussy & Alain Planès

Préludes: Livres I & II is a set of piano preludes by Claude Debussy, published as Book I in 1910 and Book II in 1913. The works exemplify Debussy's mature impressionistic language—notable for evocative tone colour, novel harmonic and modal inflections, and varied pianistic textures—and represent a key stage in his compositional development that influenced early 20th-century piano repertoire.
