Totally wrong, Debussy came in during the tail end of the Romantic Era and is responsible for the Impressionist Era. He along with Faure, Ravel and Dupark brought the "French School" into power at that time. Debussy is know as the father of Impressionism, his piece "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun" is still used today as THE score to study to truly understand the Impressionist Era.

Ya, he was the an overlap of Romantic era and 20th Century. He was NOT Barouqe

Answer 2

He lived in the late- romantic to early 20th century modern.

Answer 3

Debussy lived from 1862 to 1918. He was the leader of the Impressionistic period of music.
