Waltz (La plus que Lente) Debussy, Arr. by Matthew Moreno, Grade 4
Waltz (La plus que Lente) Arranged by Matthew Moreno
This beautiful and subdued waltz by Debussy is a unique and colorful addition to any concert program. Complex impressionistic harmonies support a delightful melody that goes through several iterations before a relaxed and satisfying ending. Debussy at his finest in a superb arrangement for strings!

The vivid imagery of "little critters" scurrying about at night inspires the melodic lines and creative harmonies used throughout this programmatic work. Beginning soft and mischievous, the music builds as new critters join the fun in a playful dialogue. The harmonic language moves between moments of pleasant consonance and slight dissonance (because as we all know, some people love little critters and some people are terrified of them!). A highly imaginative, playable work! (Grade 1, Dur 2:15)
