Ajoutée par magataganm, 12 Fév 2013 Page d'album (page from a sketch-book, or album) was written for the WWI relief organization, "Le Vêtement du Blessé" (The Dressing of the Wounded), in 1915. They solicited from Debussy a manuscript page to sell at a fundraising auction, and he obliged with the autograph copy of a brief waltz for piano. Debussy also made a copy of the piece, which he later presented to his wife, Emma, on her birthday of the same year, and it is this copy that formed the basis for the first published edition in 1933. It was at the time of this publication that the piece received its popular title, "Page d'album", although the manuscripts copy still bears Emma Debussy's designation, "Pour l'oevre du 'Vêtement du Blessé". A charming and relatively simple piece, Page d'album is often chosen as a young pianist's introduction to Debussy. Although originally written for Piano, I transcribed this piece for Concert (Pedal) Harp. Partition centrale : | Pièce pour le Vêtement du blessé (2 partitions) | |
