Clair De Lune by Debussy Provides a Unique Classical Treat for Music Lovers

Among the later classical music composers at the beginning of the 20th century, Debussy introduced a unique twist to his compositions. Clair de Lune by Debussy is both his most famous achievement, and a prime example of the influence of the Symbolist movement on his work. The movement developed as a response to realism, and sought to delve into the deeper, hidden aspects of the human condition. Debussy created songs that conjure up images of a dark, mysterious landscape trying to reveal itself.
