The marvel! Your illustration of the Afternoon of a Faun, which presents a dissonance with my text only by going much further, really, into nostalgia and into light, with finesse, with sensuality, with richness.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe main source used for this new edition for flute and piano is the original manuscript for orchestra in the Bibliotheque nationale de France in Paris. As a second source and in particular as an inspiration for the piano writing is Ravel's quatre-mains version from 1910. The flute part is kept as close as possible to the original orchestra part with additional melodic wind parts added to the flute line when necessary and possible.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scherzo Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46967952671014,"sku":"9790707707630","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/3559\/5814\/products\/D009790707707630_d.jpg?v=1697498071","url":"https:\/\/www.flute4u.com\/products\/debussy-c-prelude-a-lapres-midi-dun-faune-1","provider":"Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
