RE: [Opinion] How does Classical Music differ from other Genres of Music?
Now this is a beautiful piece, more impressionist than traditional classical music but wow! Talk about atmosphere, moods and emotions. It kind of loses it's sense of meter and paints a wonderful picture... The flute motif intro, along with the Harp, makes me feel like I'm in ancient Greece or something...
Folk Music inspired?
Debussy Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune - Leonard Bernstein
It would appear it was inspired by a poem.
Bernstein went to the Curtis institute of music. My piano instructor also went there.
