“Debussy is the most difficult of all composers to grasp or define [...]. A listener, on hearing one of his Préludes, cannot know the precise emotion that the landscape or object concerned aroused in Debussy; he can only experience a more or less successful reproduction, a translation into sound of the landscape or object. For the listener, it seems that the object or landscape has been given musical form and, even more worryingly, that he has, in a way, become the composer. Debussy is neither the painter nor the painting: he is the subject itself. He is both the music that is innate in the subject and the musician who gives it audible form.” (Harry Halbreich)
