 Debussy for Daydreaming February 15, 2010
K. Larson (Minneapolis, MN USA)
A very relaxing yet thought stimulating compilation of Debussy's greatest tunes for meditation or creative thinking.
This CD is well worth your time October 11, 2009

In today's stressful world, we all need a little peace. This music is my escape from harsh or stressful events. I play it on the piano, I listen to it a lot and I have personally found Debussy to be my all time favorite composer.
Debussy writes music in an enchanting style. Technically, he uses a different set of scales (augmented, pentatonic) than conventional classical music composers. The pentatonic scale is frequently also used in jazz.
Regardless of the techniques used in this, just buy the CD and listen to it. It's well worth your money.

With so much turmoil and upheaval in the world today this CD will carry you off gently to a special place of peace and calm. As a lifelong Debussy devotee I can't recommend this collection highly enough. Play this album before bedtime and you will float off to sleep, your mind at rest and the worries of your day forgotten.

Lovely for kids and adults alike July 10, 2009

I am a teacher and a mom. I found Debussy through a soundtrack and while I don't know any of the other songs on the soundtrack, it gave me Debussy as a lasting memory, now almost 20 years later.
When I put this music on, my 4 year old keeps painting, my mind wanders as I pick up around the house or cook. I love it. Instantly it seems like the prevailing mood is, it is benevolently overtaken by this music. I have listened to it over and over since I got it and haven't tired of it a bit.
La plus que Lente is the tune that I find myself humming all the rest of the time the music isn't playing. What a rare gem for the music collection. The interpretations are as fine as I can imagine, and Debussy is so different from other classical music in its marches and grand pieces. He is rather like a small musical stream in a forest that is green and the type of place where one might find Puck from a Midsummer's Night Dream.
That's the only way I can describe his music...a bit of discovery, a bit of hide and seek a bit of wandering. My daughter loves it, my babe loves it, I love it. This disk is great music for the day.
Aptly Titled November 13, 2008

I am not an expert on classical music. Having said this, I can tell anyone who loves to listen to simply beautiful music, you cannot go wrong with this CD. It is heavenly. It is certainly aptly titled. One can easily day dream, work, read, dine, or make love whilst listening to this music.
