Piano Solo, Piano & Keyboard, Repertoire, Solos. Children's Corner. Classical, Romantic. Softcover Book. 36 pages. G. Henle #HN382. Published by G. Henle (HU.HN382). 12.2 x 9.3 x 0.1 inches.This little Suite was published in 1908 and was dedicated to the composer's then three-year old daughter: To my beloved little Chouchou with the tender excuses of her father for what follows below. The first movement, Doctor Gradus ad Parnassum, alludes to a study by Muzio Clementi. The titles of nos. 2 to 6 can be traced back to Debussys love of everything English. Although the music addresses childish fantasy, at the least a talented amateur is required to perform it. The well-known number 6, Golliwogg s Cakewalk, is in ragtime style and shows Debussy s easy-going approach to popular trends in music. Childrens Corner was immediately extremely successful and has been arranged for various groups of instruments. This publication is edited by Ernst-Gunter Heinemannr with fingerings by Hans-Martin Theopold and a preface by Francois Lesure.
