SKU:

Composed by
Claude Debussy. Arranged
by Ralph Sauer. French
impressionist. Solo part
and Piano accompaniment.
Published by Cherry
Classics (CY.CC2737).
Debussy's
General Lavine -
eccentric, is taken from
his Book II of Piano
Preludes written in 1912.
It is in the style of a
Cakewalk, a dance
developed in the late
19th century at
get-togethers on slave
plantations in the
southern United States.
The music is
based on Edward Lavine, a
famous vaudeville
performer whose act was
presented at the Marigny
Theatre around the same
time. It is the only work
by Debussy composed as a
musical portrait for a
human
personality.
The
music of about 3 minutes
in length is appropriate
for advanced
performers.
