What is Debussy's Prelude to The Afternoon of a Faun is best described as?

"The music of this prelude is a very free illustration of Mallarmé's beautiful poem. By no means does it claim to be a synthesis of it. Rather there is a succession of scenes through which pass the desires and dreams of the faun in the heat of the afternoon. Then, tired of pursuing the timorous flight of nymphs and naiads, he succumbs to intoxicating sleep, in which he can finally realize his dreams of possession in universal Nature." (Claude Debussy)


What were debussys most famous works?

Many opinions, so here's mine: Claude-Achille Debussy was experimenting with a new tonality, the whole-note scale, where every step is a whole note (the major scale runs whole, whole, half, whole, whole, whole, half). It's a marvellous effect. Pieces that come quickly to mind are: Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun Claire de Lune (Moonlight) the Girl with the Flaxen Hair la Mer (the Sea) a string quartet Two close contemporaries exploring similar kinds of sound were Maurice Ravel and Gabriel Fauré.
