Rêverie
Written in 1890, Debussy's Rȇverie was one of his first solo piano works to make an impact. Even at this early stage in his career, when he was still working out what kind of composer he wanted to be.
The gently repetitive theme that opens the work feels like a descent into sleepy dream-world (as the title suggests), and as the textures become ever richer the dreams only become more lush and addictive. A fantastic early sign that this Debussy fellow was one to watch.
Although it was written as a piano solo, there have been numerous arrangements of Rȇverie for other instruments and ensembles. Examples include versions for violin and piano, violin and harp, chamber orchestra and (most importantly) for two guitars recorded by Julian Bream and John Williams.
