To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

But there is in it something more, something mysterious, pagan, antique, which is the possession of no one people. De- bussy has seen nature and beauty in a way peculiarly his own, and has found new forms of expression. It was said of him that if the grass could be heard growing, he would have set it to music ! He writes of the moon- shine on a ruined temple, the falling of autumn leaves, the play of wind and water. What is most astonishing is the fact that underneath all this free poetic impre...s- sionism one discovers workmanship of unerring logic and precision. Yet there are analysts who deny the presence of "form" in the music of Debussy. These would not sympathize with the reflection of Plotinus: 177 THE LURE OF MUSIC "It is on this account that fire surpasses all other bodies in beauty, because, compared with the other ele- ments, it obtains the order of form; for it is more eminent than the rest, and is the most subtle of all. Bordering as it were on an incorporeal nature. " Debussy was born at Saint-Germaine (Seine and Oise), France, August 22, 1862.
