He was one of the most important figures in music at the turn of the 20th century; his music represents the transition from late-romantic to 20th century classical.
Debussy's most dramatic contribution to music history was his disregard for traditional chord structures and tonality. He is one of the most important exponents of the whole tone scale in classical music history. His compositions flowed without a strict sense of metre or rhythm, and are considered the pioneering works of the Impressionist genre of classical music, named in comparison with the visual arts movement.
Debussy's impact was far reaching. His free use of harmony, which often altogether disregarded the concepts of tertian harmony, has been cited as an influence on the rise of Jazz music later in the 20th century.

Gods, what a beautiful, beautiful piece. Yesterday I went to a Kiwanis competition and played my Debussy piece - Pagodes from Estampes- and I did alright. But I knew I was no match for this other competitor; there was a senior pianist who played Pour le Piano so well, I almost started crying when she played the Sarabande. One day I hope I will play these songs just as well as she did.

pieces*, there is no one singing in this piece
Mouldy cheese, but like, in a bad way
@JOHN DOEI like to imagine the piano is singing if it is played beautifully enough (in order to calm my rage when someone says this)

Stunning, I love everything Debussy wrote for piano. A true romanticist, you can feel the emotion in every note.

+kungfuridinghood He was "impressionist" although i hate to generalize

+roberto moses I guess his early work might be considered romantic, this is more experimental though.

One of my best interpretation to Debussy's pour le piano. The clarity of touch is superbly executed without losing its nuances. I love it!
