5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended book on Debussy
Debussy and Ravel are my favorite composers. I think Debussy was one of the most original composers who ever lived and is on the same level as Bach, Mozart and Chopin. I've read a lot of technical books and well written biographies on Debussy but I never found a book that revealed so much of what he was like from a personal perspective.

3.0 out of 5 stars It really brings the composer to life!
I've been researching Debussy's Piano Music as part of my degree and I found this book to be fascinating because it revealed the composer to me in a new light.

It's a completely enjoyable book to read; reliable and relevant to his music

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended book on Debussy, December 18, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Debussy Remembered (Hardcover)
Debussy and Ravel are my favorite composers. I think Debussy was one of the most original composers who ever lived and is on the same level as Bach, Mozart and Chopin. I've read a lot of technical books and well written biographies on Debussy but I never found a book that revealed so much of what he was like from a personal perspective. In Debussy Remembered, Nichols organized a series of quotes by people that knew him both professionally and personally and through this series of interviews I got a real sense of his complexity and idiosyncratic nature. A must read for anyone interested in getting to understand the personal life of this brilliant and most original composer.
