Debussy was one of the most important 20th-century composers for the piano, and Children's Corner is one of his best known works. The six pieces in this suite are from his mature period, composed between 1906 and 1908. Although the pieces have fanciful names such as Jimbo's Lullaby and Serenade for the Doll, and are among Debussy's easier works, these are not for beginners. This edition presents the music in its original form with no editorial fingerings

Golliwogg's Cake-Walk est la dernière et sixième pièce d'un recueil de suites pour piano intitulé Children's Corner (« le coin des enfants »). Debussy commence à composer en 1906 ce petit recueil plein de féérie, une dédicace à sa fille Claude-Emma, plus connue sous le surnom de Chouchou, en 1908. C'est cette même année que le recueil est publié chez les éditions Durand, avec une couverture originale et plaisante faite par le compositeur lui-même. La première écoute officielle est créée au Cercle Musical à Paris le 18 décembre 1908 par Harold Bauer. Quelques années plus tard, Children's Corner est retranscrit pour orchestre par le compositeur André Caplet. Son audition est conduite par Debussy lui-même le 25 mars 1911.
Bien que ces six petites suites soient dédicacées à sa fille avec les mots suivants : « A ma très chère petite Chouchou, avec les tendres excuses de son père pour ce qui va suivre », elles ne s'adressent pas à des mains d'enfants. Car elles possèdent, pour certaines, des difficulté techniques inaccessibles pour de très jeunes éxécutants.
Les six pièces ont toutes un titre anglais, peut être faut-il y voir une aimable moquerie à l'anglomanie dominante de cette époque :
1) Doctor Gradus ad Parnassum
2)Jimbo's Lullaby (Berceuse des éléphants)
3)Ser enade for the doll (Sérénade à la poupée)
4)The snow is dancing (La neige danse)
5)The litthe shepherd (Le petit berger)
6)Golliwogg's cake-walk

Golliwogg's Cake-walk (allegro giusto, mi bémol à 2/4) est la pièce la plus célèbre du recueil, surnommée par le pianiste Alfred Cortot « Ataxique et dégingandée ». Elle représente l'apothéose finale de ce recueil. Il faut noter que le terme Cake-Wake correspond à une danse noire américaine et le mot Golliwogg représente une poupée de nègre en étoffe.
Debussy emprunte pour la première fois la musique jazz pour exprimer la danse des gestes articulés et saccadés de cette poupée nègre. Au milieu du Cake-Walk, il cite à demi-ironique les premières mesures de Tristan de Wagner en indiquant une annotation piquante : « avec une grande émotion »! puis reprend une deuxième citation dans l'accord final.
Gràce à cette pièce pleines d'effets musicaux et de contre temps rythmiques, le pianiste interprète développera un touché nuancé, de la sensibilité et de l'imagination dans l'éxécution pour faire vivre une oeuvre sautillante très originale.
