Debussy s friend Andre Caplet orchestrated the music in 1911.The suite is dedicated to Debussy s daughter Claude-Emma (known as  Chou-Chou ), who was three years old at the time. Unlike some other children s pieces, these gems by Debussy were not intended to be played by children.  They evoke the spirit of childhood and were based on some of his beloved daughter s favorite toys.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe instantly recognizable  Golliwog s Cakewalk  is by far the most famous piece in the set.  The cakewalk was a popular dance that originated in slave gatherings in the south.  American illustrator Florence K. Upton created the image of the golliwog, a black-face doll, in her famous children s books.  Debussy s music captures something of the spirit of jazz, which was taking the world by storm in the early years of the twentieth century. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Bruce Brown, 2015\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Musicians Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46968618189094,"sku":"MPWQ251","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/3559\/5814\/products\/700000000MPWQ251_d.jpg?v=1697516409","url":"https:\/\/www.flute4u.com\/products\/debussy-c-golliwoggs-cake-walk-1","provider":"Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
