Children’s Corner: Three Pieces for Nine Winds
Composers:- Debussy, Claude
- Sheen, Graham
Duration: 8
Description:
Originally written in 1908 as a “Little Suite” for piano, CHILDREN’S CORNER was dedicated to Claude Debussy’s (1862-1918) daughter, Claude-Emma: “To my beloved little Chouchou with the tender excuses of her father for what follows below.” Captivated by his daughter’s wonderment and fascination with various toys and dolls in her playroom, Debussy aimed to emulate both the experience of being young and the nostalgia of watching his daughter explore and play. Each movement was titled, in English, after one of Emma’s toys. An immediate and enduring success, the work has been arranged a great many times for a variety of instruments and ensembles over the years. This version for wind nonet (1(dPicc).1+EH.1+BCl.1+CBsn: 2.0.0.0) by Graham Sheen includes three of the movements from the suite: 1. The Little Shepherd, 2. Jimbo’s Lullaby, and 3. Golliwog’s Cakewalk.
